Perpetuating Cirle
He'll soon see
Through your ways
And finally know
What I know
You'll try and tell him it's ok
And put on that phony show
You'll make him believe it's all his fault
Just like what your father had done to you
It's the perpetuating circle of fear
And anger and saddness
And memory and longing and abuse
That forever, forever
Keeps on spinning and rolling
Tossing and turning
In the middle of the night
When you think no one's there
Listening to you cry and scream
And yell and weep
For it all to Stop!
