Abandoned Blood
Please don't make me
Please let me stay
I can't go back yet
Just one more day?
I begged her so often
To keep me there
She shut her eyes and shook her head
As if she didn't care
You see my sister was older
And out on her own
But instead of taking me in
She left me alone
She knew what went on there
She knew what he did
He did it to her too
When she was a kid
So I pray she'll understand
And empathize with me
But she only throws me back
Instead of setting me free
I squeeze her hand tighter
As we walk through my door
But I knew I was in for it
When I saw blood on the floor
She ran from the scene quickly
And I screamed for her to come back
Now I have no where to turn...
Right then my future turned black
That night was the worst
He beat me like never before
From then on I blamed her
For all of my horror
Seven years have gone by now
He still beats us every night
But I'm sixteen now
And I won't put up with the fight
I will run away forever
But I'm leaving you this
So you'll remember the happiness
You made me miss
Dear Sister,
Why did you leave me
Leave me here to die
My life with you
Is drowning in lies
I didn't want to go home
Yet you always took me back
You are the reason
My future turned black
I will now leave you
And you'll forever know
That you caused my pain
And made my tears flow
.....Your abandoned blood
Please let me stay
