if I’m ever going to move ahead
I know, I’ve got to be strong
to end this cycle of abuse
I know, it will be long
another day goes by and then
here we are
another challenge lies ahead
for you and me
and it hurts me to think about you
and it’s so hard to understand
and it’s so hard to get to know you
with that bottle
in your hand
if we’re ever going to live our life
we know
we’ve got to be strong
to build a future for our children we
have to move along
don’t dwell upon the past, move on
but don’t forget
we owe it to ourselves
to always understand
and it hurts me to think about you
and it’s so hard to understand
and it’s so hard to get to know you
with that bottle
in your hand
and it hurts me to think about you
and it’s so hard to understand
and it’s so hard to recognize you
with that bible
in your hand
and it hurts me to think about you
and it’s so hard to understand
and it’s so hard to get to know you
with that rifle
in your hand
