You leave me here, to stay
You’ll breaking your dying mothers heart
You say
Doesn’t matter the damage I take
You will never see me break
Even though the abuse
There is no use
I am to stay close to home
I have to stay strong
You leave me here, to stay
You’ll breaking your dying mothers heart
You say
Doesn’t matter the damage I take
You will never see me break
Here eyes tell me she knows
But she cant seem to let 25 years of marriage go
He is her only hope
Her only love, the reason worth living
You leave me here, to stay
You’ll breaking your dying mothers heart
You say
Doesn’t matter the damage I take
You will never see me break
It would break her heart to see
What he has done to me
But she blinded just like the rest of the world
But people question me I let them
Last thing I want them to question him
You leave me here, to stay
You’ll breaking your dying mothers heart
You say
Doesn’t matter the damage I take
You will never see me break
Just let him take out his anger on me
Never let my dying mother see
The truth hurts and this time it could kill
That’s why I could never spill
You leave me here, to stay
You’ll breaking your dying mothers heart
You say
Doesn’t matter the damage I take
You will never see me break
So hide my tears and bruises
Make good excuses
For these extra hospital visits
Rough housing, fallings that the reason for this pain
You leave me here, to stay
You’ll breaking your dying mothers heart
You say
Doesn’t matter the damage I take
You will never see me break
I wish I could go away
Responsibly is making me stay
Last thing I want is for this to escalade
And for him to take it out on her one day
You leave me here, to stay
You’ll breaking your dying mothers heart
You say
Doesn’t matter the damage I take
You will never see me break
So will wait for that painful day
When you are taken away
You resting in peace
Will give me the freedom that I need
