I am so sick of living in fear
I turn up the music to drown out what I hear.
The horrendous echo of distant yelling
When it's all over, no one's telling.
No one talks, the room filled with hate
It's why I get to bed so late.
I have nowhere to go, no one I know
That would help me figure things out.


I'm drowning in fear, slowly losing hope
Somehow I will attempt to cope.
I feel like running away, which I have recently threatened to do,
He wouldn't stop me, he wants me to.
Every fight is about control,
I have no freedom, that's one things he stole.


Crying and yelling is all that I hear,
as I slowly fall deeper and deeper, into fear.
I sometimes fear being in my own home.
Sometimes I feel so alone.
My eyes are red and tired, tired of crying.
It seems impossible, to simply be smiling.
Please help me conquer my fear...
