He Hit Her

She found a boy that felt like home

'Cause he had the poison from back there

She saw the obvious but something about the smile

Just kept her close, something to keep from feeling lonely

She found it beautiful he's broken

'Cause she was sure she could fix him

It's all she's ever known

And this might be her only way to cope

She found a boy who felt like home

'Cause the man of the house was never home

The man with her now is her home

So he hit her and it felt like a kiss

'Cause what she learned is that love looks like this

From the half-baked bone-brained bitch that she calls her father

She sees the bruises on her body

She knows its useless to defend

And it's never been this bad but this is nothing new

When she's in love she thinks it's all part of the process

And now when he moves she flinches

She'll never think she's pretty

She'll live her whole damn life in fear of walking home without her sister

Like she did back home

She found a boy just to console her

So he hit her and it felt like a kiss

'Cause what she learned is that love looks like this

From the half-baked bone-brained bitch that she calls her father
