Everyday people demonstrate a state of hate
Usin fists instead of lips to translate
Bruised and battered people start to cry
Hands together, tears drippin, lookin to the sky
Askin god for care, with a deep hearted prayer
A pain free day......very rare

Home from work, open up the door
Seein more cans of beer on the floor
He's drunk again, nothin more then a constant trend
"Snap to reality, the problem is no longer pretend"
Attempted a Conversation
He can't speak due to the Intoxication
He's now passed out, beer spilling from the can
"You know you shoulda ran, yet stick next to your once great man"

Lookin at him, you remember the good days
No dark clouds upon the marriage just bright rays
Highschool sweethearts, dating since the age of fifteen
At the prom voted, homecoming king and queen
"Now hand in hand, the two of you never seen"

Startin to shake, he's now awake
"He's gunna make a miskake, a life he will take"
you hand him water and bread, as he can barely stand
Addin a little scotch, claimin water is bland
Startin to weep, beggin and pleading
For him to seek help, and stop this relationships bleeding
Alcohol, it’s an addiction, always wantin another drink
His breath is full of booze, really does stink
You refuse to get him the beer
He's blowin a fuse, in you striking fear
Screamin to get him just one
You say you can’t, as their all done

That he doesn't believe, he goes to the fridge for a drink to retrieve
You try to sneak away, about to leave
Before you can make your escape, he runs you down
Sayin without you, he will constantly frown
Crying and Screaming, sayin you don't care, this life of yours just isn't fair
Gunna leave until Alcohol and him aren’t a pair
"Last moments now, flash back of your life"
You beg him to calm down, but he picks up the knife

From the heavens you hear and begin to shed joyus tears
Finding out he'll no longer abuse or drink more beers
Jail for life, no hope for him in the distance
A life of paradise for you for the rest of existance
