It's 2 am and I'm on the phone
Feel his hands slip around my throat
I'm trying to breathe but my face goes numb
All I can hear is the sound of the drum
She's looking at me with those eyes
"Mommy why do you always cry?"
Baby I know this is not our life
We'll run away and not look back this time no
He grabs her next up against the wall
Please don't hurt her, she did nothing wrong
I fall to the ground like he wants me to do
I grab a knife and I push it through
She runs out the door and he falls to the ground
Feel my heart beating so damn loud
My hands start to shake then I hear him laugh
"Babe you're a fool to think that I'm your last
You know
I'm not your last
You know
I'm not your last
You know
I'm not your last, you know
It's two years later and I'm in a room
Drinking my coffee in the afternoon
She runs up to me with those big green eyes
Mommy look I caught a butterfly
The suns shining bright and the flowers glow
Clouds start to cry and the leaves blow
Next comes a storm and the trees sway
Snow falls down and then it melts away
