Avoid. - Behind Closed Doors lyrics

In your closet check for monsters, is he in your bed with you? Do you say you love him often? Was it a one night stand and a wartorn hand? Do you like living in a coffin? I used to dream at night of my life by your side I'd have been there in a heartbeat, you never said I need help, I need out now I'm looking back at the bruises when I saw you, you shook on the phone It was 3 am, you talked to him, I watched you tremble It isn't home if there's no safety in your bedroom, the one protecting you, he destroys you And there's no getting around a man with bad intentions and a heart of black It's a decision made; engulfed in hate; the very scum you always vowed to stay away from I'll never get why anyone gives the time of day but he manipulates And he shakes you deep to the core, I've never seen you this weak before I hope when you sleep at night your dreams don't hurt like your body does Well, he's a f**ing coward From the bottom of my heart with all the air in my lungs You're still beautiful despite what he's done There will never be a day you don't cross my mind I pray(I pray) I pray(I pray) you're doing fine He said his daddy died when he was young; teenage years with his head to a gun Blindsided by the fact that his vices are far worse than his suffering these days He's taking out all his feelings now, you're the recipient of misplaced anger He used to be gold, he's always been bold, but he's taking a stand in the worst ways Cash said "a love should be burning." He never once said aching or hurting There's a pain in your eyes I see it Behind an ocean of blue there's a mountain of bleeding I just wanted to stop the blood from spilling You can wear your scar but you don't have to be it
