I know you hear me scream in the dark of the night.
I know you wake from sweet dreams to live in fright.
I try so hard to be strong for you, but I am so weak.
I provide so little for you, our life is so bleak.
I don't know how to live without chaos and strife,
It has always been such a huge part of my life.
It is no different than when I was a child,
When in the night my soul was defiled.
Each time he strikes out and yells,
His guilt is in the air and it tells
Of all the trials I have had to endure,
But the day will come when I am so sure
That his death will bring relief.
I know that you share in this belief.
Together we are so very strong,
And the time will not be long
Before we are ready to end his breath
And we will stride into our lives so fresh.
