Bruises, they never go away

Author: Penny's Scar

She hid inside the closet she thought that it was safe
Hiding from her daddy he snapped then went insane
Bruised and broken torn and tattered
She was 5 years old that day
They buried her outside of town

Bruises, they never go away
Bruises, they never go away

7 years old they found him crying
people swarmed and gathered
his mother started screaming and then a gun shot rang out
Leave him alone he is the son of the devil
God told me to kill him now
And then his face went pale and now she’s in jail
There are too many stories like this one to tell

Her body found in pieces in bags along the road
Some crazy man done lost his mind it’s on the radio
The cops have him surrounded their trying to strike a plea
But we all know how it will end
He’ll be dead by sunrise just you wait and see

She hid inside the closet she thought that it was safe
Hiding from the monsters the world outside portrayed
Bruised and broken torn and tatterered
She was 5 years old that day
They buried her outside of town
