.Krysti.

The house was only one away
I wish that distance could've been more
Because everytime I look outside
There's bloodstains on your door
All I ever hear is the sound of your voice
Screams and yells and tears
I try to block it out
But only in me will you confide your fears
Best friends, I know I promised
But lately it's so hard to deal
You're problems are too much to handle
I can't even relate to how you feel
Things have always been great for me
People are so cruel
To take advantage of someone like you
A gem in a world full of fools
I took you in one cold night
And by firelight I could see
The scars upon your face
The fresh bruises on your body
I kept you with me safe and warm
Until we heard a knock on my door
Too scared to even move
We huddled together even more
He broke open the door
And the look upon his face
I knew exactly what was coming
So I held you tighter in my embrace
But little did I know
what he had in his hand
As he pulled out a crowbar
And demanded for your hand
You told me it was ok
You told me you could go
It was alright you said
But we both knew it wasn't though
Finally he pried you from me
And forever that cry I will hear
"Someone help me, PLEASE!"
Ringing ever after in my ears
That night I never fell asleep
For my dreams were haunted with him
That one night was hell
But I was forced to see it again and again
Until I finally I arose
And looked to your bloodstained door
But all I really saw
Were you're tears scattered across the floor
The ambulance had come and gone
but not a police officer was in sight
He had gotten away with all of it
He had played all his cards just right
What a world we live in
Where murder is just a game
And anyone who can win it
Never faces loss, just gain
The people aren't the problem
It's this world we live in
No one cares about the game of life
Everyone just wants to win.
