One on the nose, one on the chin
You bruise so easy, so why stay with him?
He uses you just like a human punching bag
But you don't complain, you're too scared to speak
Anyway, it only really hurts you when you laugh
And when you eat
But you can't break the pattern, week after week
The bruises show
But he must be special otherwise you'd just get up and go
You'll never let us know
Exactly how you feel
What's the use, the cynics say it's no excuse
You keep running back just to get a little bit of abuse
You say it's okay
But I say that it's not right
You wind him up, but you're living in fear
You keep going back but it ends in tears, oh
That's quite a cut on the side of your head
Is it from his fist, or did you really fall out of bed?
Oh, so uncouth
Excuse me, is this your tooth?
Why do you stay, no one knows
Do you really love him, or are you too scared to go?
You're always nervous and on the edge of tears
You cry alone
But you never tell us what it's like when you get back home
No one will ever know
Because you never show
What's the use
Everyone says you've got no excuse
You keep running back just to get a little bit of abuse
You say it's okay
But I say that it's not right
Oh, it's your secret, it's your life, who am I to criticize?
It takes two sides to know it's true
And maybe, he'll stay in love with you
No one will ever know
Because you never show
