In my Room
I see my mother sit in silenceCount the minutes to closing timeOne more drink and he'll bring home angerLike clockwork I would hideHeavy stepsDrunken threatsLocked away I can feel youIn my roomI can hear her fight his kissIn my roomI hear him bring down his fistAnd still at nightI hear my mother cryTonight the wait is overAnd he won't be pacifiedHe'll raise his bottle just like a hammerAnd she will be crucifiedBroken crossSomething lostLocked away I can feel youIn my roomI can hear her fight his kissIn my roomSongtexteI hear him bring down his fistAnd still at nightI hear my mother cryWhat did she do to suffer youHer tears bleed through the walls in hereAnd I'll stand in your wayFatherYou won't hit her ever againBroken crossSomething lostLocked away I can feel youIn my room I can hear her fight his kissIn my roomI hear him bring down his fistAnd still at nightI hear my mother cryShe lays herself downNo more strength to resistI close my eyesBut the darkness won't forgiveAnd still at nightI hear my mother cry
