The redness of his face permits
The truth his words won't dare admit
His sunken eyes are hid behind a darkened lens


Broken doors and thoughtless words
The tyre tracks on her dead lawn

Feeble threats and loveless debts
Prove nothing when she steals your breath


She stands tall with strength; not height
You can see the fists inside her eyes
Now it's time for her revenge,

Delivered acid tongue
God pity/help him


She sits there in the aftermath
As the cars are driving slowly past


Broken doors and thoughtless words
The tyre tracks on her dead lawn
Feeble threats and loveless debts

Prove nothing when she steals your breath

She sits there in the aftermath

And listens as cars drive slowly past
His final show, his lies
Have done nothing but cure her smile


Her bruises fade from black to blue
Over time, they slowly heal

You think you've grown, found love again
When you break your own heart, it will never mend


Broken doors and thoughtless words
The tyre tracks on her dead lawn
Feeble threats and loveless debts

Prove nothing when she steals your breath
