rap, He screams in pain as she pulls glass from

Intro

Verse 1
Three a.m. on the kitchen floor, you're pulling glass from my hand
You don't say a word, you keep on picking slow like I'm nothing more
I'm screaming through my teeth, you tell me hold still like you know how I stand
Tell me what you saw when the mirror cracked, cause I don't know what I did last
Pain all on my face and you still calm, a steady hand while my world caves in
You say I'm the same man broke the door, and maybe that's the truth you're spitting out
I'm not proud of it, I won't lie to you, I know the damage that I'm doing
Every time I swear I'm done, I'm back here on this floor with you

Hook
Why are you still here when I'm the one who breaks you down
Why you still here, the way I hurt you, why you won't leave
Cause you see the boy beneath the anger, and you love him still
That's the answer, that's the reason, that's the one thing I can't hide

Verse 2
Your sister called you crazy, said you ought to leave me in the cold
Her words still ring, but I got no right to judge the way you hold
I'm the one who swings, I'm the one who breaks, you're the one who stays behind
Every time I hit the wall, you're there to pick up what I break
You told me, look at what you did, I'm standing here with blood on my shirt
I said I'm sorry, but my apology sounds cheap and hurts
You ask me why I can't just stop and change the way I treat you
And honestly I've got no answer, all I know is I'm the one who knew

Hook
Why are you still here when I'm the one who breaks you down
Why you still here, the way I hurt you, why you won't leave
Cause you see the boy beneath the anger, and you love him still
That's the answer, that's the reason, that's the one thing I can't hide

Verse 3
It's raining on the window, rent is due and I got nothing left
I'm sitting on the edge of the bed, wondering where the good man went
You never asked me for a thing except to stop and put the anger down
But I keep reaching for the bottle, keep on running from the truth around
So go on, call me what you want, I'll take the names and hate you throw
Cause every word that cuts me deep is something I already know
I'm trying to be the man you need, but the man I am stands in the door
Next time you pull the glass out, maybe you won't pick up the floor

Hook
Why are you still here when I'm the one who breaks you down
Why you still here, the way I hurt you, why you won't leave
Cause you see the boy beneath the anger, and you love him still
That's the answer, that's the reason, that's the one thing I can't hide

Outro
One day I'll be strong enough to make this place a home
Till then I'm just the man who hurts you, too weak to speak what I own
