House Of Pain (Song)

Mommy why do you look that way?
Swaying back and forth always.
Who is he passed out on the floor?
Vulnerable with no lock on my door.
Why don’t you look at me?
Are you afraid of what you might see?
Didn’t you think maybe,
I’d ask you who is he?

Chorus:
You let him do this to you,
Always thinking I never knew.
While addictions started to form,
You let him do this to you.

Little girls shouldn’t shed tears,
Shouldn’t have such great fears.
There daddy’s shouldn’t leave,
Vanishing there hope to believe.
Stop screaming as you plead,
The more you do the more I bleed.

Chorus:
You let him do this to you,
Always thinking I never knew.
While addictions started to form,
You let him do this to you.

Moans I heard when trying to sleep,
All my questions buried deep.
Naked bodies stared me down,
But when I looked up no one was around.
He looked at me the way he looked at you,
Oh the things he wanted to do.

Chorus:
You let him do this to you,
Always thinking I never knew.
While addictions started to form,
You let him do this to you.

Bridge:
I tried my best to fly away,
Maybe I’d come back some day.
But I never really knew,
Exactly what was wrong with you.
I’m your child for Christ sake,
You fucked me over it’s too late.
And so I’ll never know why,
You chose to make me cry.

Dad’s lucky he escaped,
I myself sure can’t wait.
Can’t you just come on back?
Forget that life and leave the crack.
I’m slowly learning not to care,
Though my fears have gone nowhere.
Chorus:
You let him do this to you,
Always thinking I never knew.
While addictions started to form,
You let him do this to you.

(Why?!?!? Ohhh why?!?)
