Default father son

Time to let this story unfold
stand up sit down do as you are told
everything is made clear
forget about everything you hold so dear.
The batteries are running low
your parents are losing control
time to runaway as fast as you can
tell me more help me understand.
Caught in a tight grip thrown on the floor
into your bedroom he stands at the door
compelled to harm you see it in his eye's
punching and kicking you it feels like all night.

All my anger bottled inside
nowhere to run nowhere to hide
have no new friends moved far away
trapped in my parents world and here i stay.
Threatened with violence at every given turn
i'm a punch bag do they learn
i'm there child and i don't ask for a lot
don't deserve this blood clot.

Dad lost his job and is drinking heavy
mum never worked but she's the same
lock the children up don't say a word
frightened for our life if we are overheard.
Wake up i scream every time
that's why i get what's coming mine
kill me it's only a matter of time
will i ever see again the sunshine.

Parents that carry a life in there hands
god like a whinging man
losing his own battle with drink and drugs
turning his on;y son into a thug.
What is he expecting when he looks into my eye's
is he waiting for me to throw a punch what a guy
wait til i grow up i'l give you what for
i'l stand over you inside your door
when your a cripple and can't defend yourself
that's when i'l attack you with a block of cement.
