These are the lyrics to my new song NOISE about abuse. Clip on prior tweet:

NOISE

Why? Why?
He would Yell She would Cry
He would yell She would Cry
He would Yell She would Cry
He would yell She would Cry

As a kid I hid
No hit was harder
Than disapproval
The removal of self
Evidence
That to not exist
was the only way
To try to be perfect
He would Yell She would Cry
He would yell She would Cry
He would Yell She would Cry
He would yell She would Cry

As a kid
I bid
On disappearing
As the strongest bet
To let the anger fade
and trade
Self
For a Don't Ask Why
He would Yell She would Cry
He would yell She would Cry
He would Yell She would Cry
He would yell She would Cry

As A kid
I would get out of the way
Couldn't stand the pain
Of being the reason
for the Mad Season

Of The Fists & the Sigh
He would Yell She Would Cry
And I became smaller as my body grew
Broken back without brace
And nobody knew
That the face of the girl that smiles at you
Guides her steps
through her fears
Of the swings and the tears
For there is no pain
Like disapproval
And there is no removal
Of the story...
One Won't Tell
She Would Cry
He Would Yell

Why?
