Hold Me Tight

I should hate him, I know

Everything he does to me

I should claw at his skin

And scream in his face

And tell everyone I see.

But before he hurts me

Kills me, breaks me

He holds me tight

With comforting arms

And I know that this is right

That this is the love that a father owes a daughter.

So hold me tight

And I'll close my eyes

And maybe, just maybe

He'll stop there tonight.
