lyrics

THE PROSECUTOR BEARS HEAVY ON THE ALLEGED VICTIM
IN A CASE OF SPOUSAL ABUSE WHEN THE BLUDGEONED WON'T SPEAK
SHE SAYS SHE BROUGHT IT ON BY SPEAKING OUT OF LINE
WHY DOES SHE DEFEND HIM AND NOT PROSECUTE HIM FOR HIS CRIME

YOU'RE OUT OF LINE
YOU NEED TO LEAVE HER ALONE
SHE NEEDS TO PACK HER BACKS AND LEAVE
BURN DOWN YOUR HOME

SHE CAN'T HELP IT
SHE'S ALWAYS STUCK BY HIS SIDE THROUGH THICK AND THIN
HE'S MADE HER THINK THE HELL THAT SHE'S BEEN LIVING IN
IS THE ONLY WAY A MAN COULD LOVE HER
HE JUST WANTS TO WATCH HER SUFFER

YOU BETTER DO WHAT I SAY
I DON'T WANT THIS
OR I'LL SPIT IN YOUR FACE
GET OUT
BUT I'LL NEVER COPE
I CAN'T HELP IT
MY SELF ESTEEM'S LOW
IT'S WHAT LOVE IS ALL ABOUT

YOU HIT ME IN THE FACE ONE TOO MANY TIMES
YOU'VE SHOVED MY HEAD INTO THE LINOLEUM GROUND
YOU SAID YOU'D PUT ME SIX FEET IN THE FUCKING GROUND IF YOU GOT HALF THE CHANCE
YOU DON'T GIVE A SHIT ABOUT ANYTHING
THAT'S WHY I'M LEAVING, I'M FUCKING GONE
WELL, I GUESS IT WAS KIND OF MY FAULT
WE'LL GET THOUGH THIS, BABY
THIS IS WHAT THEY CALL LOVE
