Think

Think of that girl afraid and alone
Think of that guy to scared to go home
Think of them both battered and bruised
Physically, mentally, emotionally abused

Think of them both hiding in terror
Wondering what this time was their error
That devil is their husband or wife
Threatening, harming, risking their life

Imagine that was your daughter or son
You dont know what damage is being done
Because they lie, cover, protect out of fear
Thinking this time the end may be near

They dont know if today is their last
If tomorrow they will be a thing of the past
Theres no place to go, to scared to leave
Their family shouldnt have to grieve

But this is life and this shit is real
Some people threaten, abuse and kill
People die at the hands of their other
Kids say goodbye to their father, their mother
