Is this how you say you care?

With your fist slamming into my head?

Blood trickling into my hair?

 

Shoving me onto the floor?

Pinning my arms at my sides?

And despite what I say, you control me

Is my body your freakin' prize?

 

And now, here we are again

Thrown against a wall again

 

Wrestling to get out of your arms

Get my feet onto the ground

So maybe I can run or fight

And pray you can't cahse me down

 

Is this how you say you love me?

Is this how you say you care?

You're bigger and older and stronger

So, whatever you want, it's fair?

 

And here's another bruise on my side

And another bleeding lip

I've got a twisted wrist again

Splash of purple and blue on my hip

 

Is this how you say you love me?

By ripping me up like this?

Glaring down from above me?

Make me cower in fear of your fist?

 

Tearing my clothes from my body

Forcing yourself on me

Crushed beneath you gain

Afraid to fight myself free

 

Afraid of your hands, of your body

Afraid of your eyes, of your glare

 

Is this how you say you love me?

Is this how you say you care?
