It's time to leave.

I don't know which way to steer,
You've got to get out of here,
Cause I can't love you anymore,
I can't love you like before.

You have to go,
You're sinking too low,
I can't stand the feeling,
I think I am finally healing.

But every time I get back to my feet,
You can't stand this form of defeat,
You hurt me once again,
And I am back down in the end.

You drag me back in,
You can't let me win,
I am sitting here crying,
You can't see that I am dying.

Please lord take this life,
I no longer want to be his wife,
He beats and batters,
And his happiness is all that matters.

I can't keep living this way,
So I am here to pray,
I hope you can end this hurt,
I am ready for my place in the dirt.

I need to escape his painful hands,
And bury me wherever my body lands,
Keep me from this misery,
Make this life history.

I want to die,
Instead of cry,
He beats me more,
I run for the door.

He pulls me back,
The strength I lack,
To carry on with this life,
So I will finally end it tonight.
