Love you to death


He didn’t care if she was right
Bad words expressed within a fight
But she forgave him any way
His temper’s always there to stay

He says he’s sorry - she strokes his hair
A simple gesture to show she cares
Speaks gentle words that it’s ok
Her heart is always there to stay


One day he’ll be alone
with to much time to call his own
And remember once he had a wife
And his arguments took years of her life
But he still thinks that it’s ok
But he still thinks that it’s ok


She never thinks about herself
A sacrifice upon her health
She works her fingers to the bone
Her heart is always in the home

She tries to do the best she can
Shop in the rain while pushing pram
Thinks to herself that it’s ok
The pain is always there to stay


One day she’ll be in her grave.
Born a woman but died a slave
Then the old man can write on her stone
She died to make a happy home
And in her grave she’ll always stay
And in her grave she’ll always stay


Our man back home will marry again
Making promises wrapped around pain
A matter of time for the first fight
It doesn’t matter he’s always right


He’s born to disagree
The only words he knows are I and me
Don’t you find it comforting to?
To think this bastard could easily be you
That’s your decision ok
That’s your decision ok


So who’s to say what’s right or wrong
Where understanding should belong
I heard that religion makes a war
It kills but doesn’t know what for
It kneels and then it starts to pray
The killings always there to stay
