A purple bruise
A fractured limb
All covered up with lies
A swollen face
A bloody tongue
This violence denied
Empty now and meaningless
Ridiculed in shame
Until death do us apart
Who should take the blame?
To live a lie
Forgive or die
A stricken look
A lowered head
Reflections, turning back
A trembling hand
A quickened step
The dreaded next attack
Turning from the holy ghost
Light and spirit fade
Waiting for deliverance
Everything betrayed
To live a lie
Forgive or die
A vacant stare
A beat-up faith
The book of truth reviled
A prayer to God
A plea for help
Held ransom with the child
Wide awake and holding tears
Fear that never sleeps
Curled up in the bed at night
The virgin gently weeps
To live a lie
Forgive or die
To live a lie
Forgive or die
