The man in your life seems to overcome anything,
But you think it's love

The life you live
It breaks you and you welcome it because it's love
It's a hug and it's a punch;
Hide your bruises, they are too dark

Waking up
To the smell of alcohol on his breath
You weren't out too long

This eats you inside out
(So move along)
This is not true love
And it's the pressure that has you locked
"Oh dear please wake up"

Wake up hide yourself,
This love is a lie; you're dying

The life you live it beats
And batters and every bone is bound to break
It's a hug and it's a kick,
Hide your scars, oh wont you hide

Love can never hurt this much
Oh sister wake up
Oh mother wake up
Oh daughter wake up
