In the middle of the nights
While sleeping soundly in my bed, all snug and tucked just right..
Im woken by the awful words of mom and daddy's fight.
As I heard those hateful names they would shout then slam the door,
I prayed for Bub to stay asleep and my ears to hear no more.
But the prayers I made weren't answered cause my Bub is now awake.
I would hold his ears instead, for as long as it may take.
The longing for some peace, and the begging for no more
just never seemed to happen as we watched her hit the floor.
We lay and cry together. Growing hatred for this grief.
Why won't mom just listen and give daddy all her keys?
She says she loves and cares for us, but I'm lost on what to think.
She says this with a smile as she chases with a drink.
The torture we both suffered and all those tears we cried,
Can never be compared to the pain we felt inside.
