Seven in the morning and the sun is hardly moving
He’s sleeping on the sectional but you can hear his breathing
can you face the mirror and the traces of the evening
will you be disbelieving what you see?
Step one he began to raise his voice
Step two was you learning to avoid
contradicting him when he was drunk
knowing that it’s safer no to talk
So you won’t be fearing that knock on your door
And you won’t be afraid of the dark anymore, no
You’ll just keep soldiering on
The day when you settle your score
The make-up on your frozen face no longer hides the bruises
He regrets every time but you can see through his excuses
How can you believe he loves the woman he abuses
Every time he loses control?
Step three you decide you’re on your own
A resolution burning in your bones
Your fingers running on the cold metal
Visualizing how to end it all
So you won’t be fearing that knock on your door
And you won’t be afraid of the dark anymore, no
You’ll just keep soldiering on
The day when you settle your score
