I find my new day troubling
Filled with fear of what is to come
I hear the words echo in my mind
Even before they come

His voice is loud and angry
Calling me names 
Telling me what a rotten person
I have become

The loathing in his voice
Hinders movement in my heart
Causing me to feel the pain 
Of the beating he unleashes 

All I know is his wrath
No love, no charity, no dignity
My life is filled with storms
Which I have no control over

My mind thinks back to a time
When I knew peace in my life
I cannot find it
It seems to have never existed

I try to run away
But he is there to stop me
Another beating waiting for me
For my transgressions

Where is the sunshine I desire
Where is the love I need
Where is the hope I desire
To fulfill my dreams

All I know is darkness
All I know is pain 
All I know is fear
And then it starts again

Can any one hear my cries
Can anyone see my tears
Can anyone see my bruises
And know my calamity

If you see me passing by
Do not ignore me
It may be my last time here
If he sees me 

Will some one help my soul
I need to escape this world
No more, no less 
Than any one else in captivity

Pray for me today
Pray I find the way
Pray I see the light
Before deaths awful face
