Hurt Me
August 6, 2015
You pushed me
And I fell to the floor
And you held me in you arms as I cried
And you promised "never again"
And I believed you
And then you slapped me
And you promised "never again"
And I believed you
And then you kicked me
And said it was my fault
And I believed you
And then you broke my arm
And said that I provoked you
And I believed you
And then you said you were going to kill me
And I believed you
