Smoke in my face
breathe it back at your gaze
The only taste in my mouth is sour rage
A million words of hate
On the tip of my tongue that I cant say
A little jab a little twist
You hold me tight above your boney wrist
We're at it again and the red comes out
inches away but I stand my ground
Its the The slam of the door,
the flight of beats in my chest
It doesn’t take that much to have them back in my breast
salivating on the taste, Left with nothing but my will at stake
Of little patience, of little hope
Gripping desperately to this dingy rope
My back against the wall and my brow high
I take it again, for a millionth time
Chorus - In those frightened years, of youth and tears
Its so hard to know, what you don’t deserve
Its only normal, you aren’t mistreated
Hush your mouth and take the beating
For what you feel isn’t real
but your crimes are worth your every tear
Hush your mouth take the beating
It's only normal what your feeling
