Its so scary cos - Mummy loves Daddy And Daddy loves Mummy: Every time he hits her, breaks her, bruises her, hes not sorry He says its just his way of showing that he cares.
And his kids are watching, learning from this wisdom he shares: On how to show love, How to be men
Sometimes they turn away So he just shows them again
And again Until hes sure that they understand Now they think: To hit a womens How to prove youre a man
And so it continues And so it goes on Until his childrens innocence Is all but gone Now these little boys Are both grown men Neither of them scared To teach these lessons Again
But what happens when: These little boys, both have baby girls Pretty little things With blue eyes And tight blonde curls
They: Treat them the same as they treat their wives and the teachers ask questions when they go to school with black eyes
But neither of these little girls understand that this is wrong Daddys only going by the lessons That he was taught from
Still: Each time that he hits them, they whisper daddy no and never does he hear them praying he will go
So they make a promise: To each other, their mothers, and God above That they will never teach his lessons Or show love The way he does
And they dont mean to break their promise But they just want him Dead
And they smile and say I love you As they place a gun to Daddys head

It is so sad that this vicious circle repeats itself until someone finds the strength to break it. A very powerful message here. |
