Then mixed with blood falls from my face

By Darkest_Addiction

He starts to yell he starts to scream
He starts to swing and swear at me
My tears run from my bruised up face
Then mixed with blood falls from my face
The cuts and bruises plain as day
I go to school just another day
No one asks me no one sees
Theres no one here to rescue me
They laugh it off
Then turn away
Pretending everythings ok
But thats ok im safe for now
Till the school day ends again
He starts to yell he starts to scream
He starts to swing and swear at me
My tears run from my bruised up face
Then mixed with blood falls from my face
Tonights the night hes gone to far
He cant go back its gone to far
Did you know me?
Did you see me?
Were you my friend?
Or just my teacher?
You could have asked
You could have seen
But instead you let him murder me
