You do
not see
what he
has done.

As you
don’t see
what you’ve
become.

He’s
brainwashed
you.
With the
tales he’s
spun.

Not
caring that,
inside of
you.
All you
want
to do,
is run.

I do
feel
for you,
i really do.
Living with
such a
manipulative
man.

Who,
from the
start…
brainwashed you.
So that
he could
control
everything
you do.

But you
do not
help
yourself
at all.
Staying with him.
When in
your heart
you know,
the kids
see all.

From the violence
to all
the bullying.
It only
makes
me think…
Why,
do you
keep on
letting him.
Just
carry on,
with all
his brainwashing!

He captured
you,
when you
were weak.
When your
clock was
ticking,
during
those days.
When all
you
wanted
was just
a family.

He offered
things,
that you
needed then.
By
sealing fate,
with a
wedding
ring.

That’s only
when,
his behaviour
change.
Slowly,
he started
his bullying
game.

It was
the little
things,
he did
and said.

Those
close too
you,
could see
it then.

But you
knew best,
all of
the time.
As he
brainwashed
you,
to keep
you blind.

So you
apologised,
when things
went wrong.
Day after
day,
until
your voice,
was gone.

All because,
he made
you feel
so flattered,
by the physical.

Then soon
in time,
he would
repeat,
bad habits,
like a
dog on
heat.

The
brainwashed
way.
You have
observed.
From time
to time.
When
feeling
hurt.

From
the man,
that once
you thought
you knew.
From
the day
you met,
he’s been
killing
you.
