I come home from school
Mamma's laying on the floor
And she's covered in blood
Mum I'm scared can i go to Troy's house
Yes you can always remember
That Mummy loves you
Well I'm sick and tired of watching Mamma get hurt
I want to help her but my arms won't work
Her eyes are swollen, she cannot see
She's getting dragged from in front of me
I'm hanging on, I love my Mamma
She gets pulled into a room
And I hear her scream!
Davey call somebody, baby call someone
Help me, baby help me
Then the room falls silent, and tears and fear
All around me
See I don't know the reasons why
When women try to hide their scars and they stay with guys
Who just beat them up
They care so much about them
And when they sleep they're safe enough
'Til they wake up
Men won't hurt them
While they're sleeping
Oh Mummy you got two beautiful boys
Please leave them
Think about your children
You're a beautiful woman
But if you won't listen well
Let me live in a broken home
Surrounded by useless drunks
And an empty fridge of alcohol
I know you're scared to live here Mum
Remember you won't be alone
Mamma please try
With the blood running through your veins
Oh Mamma please try
Cause this life is too much pain
Mamma please try
I will love you all the same
And I'll wait for you and I'll wait some more
I will always catch you when you fall
You're emotions tell me when you lie
Oh Mamma don't fall asleep, please open your eyes
Mamma, oh please don't die
Cause I don't want to be alone
Well twenty odd years have gone by
The world has changed and so have I
And now I'm not afraid anymore of my mother's guys
And now I've grown into a man
And Mamma I'm stronger
And I don't want to leave her now
Baby don't hurt nobody
You have to forgive
Leave him
