Through your screaming at me to "Shut the fuck up! Shut the fuck up!"
while I try feebly to stand up for myself, to say how you treat me isn't love
I can hear my father screaming at my mother, "Shut the fuck up! Just-"
while he beat me on those green, wooden kitchen chairs out of bloodlust.
I fear the red string of fate making this a sick game of time telephone cup.
