Black and blue
Black and blue
He hits me everyday
It's nothing new.
He locks me in my room
And leaves for the noon .
I cry , I cry , ever so soon .
I ask him , why do you treat me like this?
I did nothing too you.
I cook , I clean , I wash too,
I do everything you ask me too do.
Why do you treat us like this, me and Cody too ?
I thought you said you loved us ?
I guess that wasn't true.
But look at me , my face is black and blue ,
Filled with bruises from you.
You said you'd never do this to me again.
Why didn't you tell the truth ?
I could of left and got somebody better than you .
Someone who would treat me right.
Someone who knows what I've been through.
Someone to tell me they love me and mean it too.
Someone better than you.
Black and blue
Black and blue
If somebody hit you
You'd feel the same way as I do.
Like s***
A piece of poo
Like nobody cares or has any feelings about you .
Black and blue
Black and blue
I wish that you could go through the same pain , that I go through .
