Coercing or leaving
Shutting down and punishing
Running from rooms, defending
Withholding, justifyingThese versions of violence
Sometimes subtle, sometimes clear
And the ones that go unnoticed
Still leave their mark once disappearedDiagnosing, analyzing
Unsolicited advice
Explaining and controlling
Judging, opining and meddlingThese versions of violence
Sometimes subtle, sometimes clear
And the ones that go unnoticed
Still leave their mark once disappearedThis labeling, this pointing
This sensitives unraveling
This sting Ive been ignoring
I feel it way down, way downThese versions of violence
Sometimes subtle, sometimes clear
And the ones that go unnoticed
Still leave their mark once disappearedThese versions of violence
Sometimes subtle, sometimes clear
And the ones that go unnoticed
Still leave their mark once disappeared
