Battered

Did you ever love me ?
Did you care at all?
You hit,hit,hit me
Did not care at all
Eyes so black,eyes so blue
Hanging out the socket

Chorus

Just another battered girl
Just another battered girl
Just another battered girl

Made excuses for you
Covered up the marks
Covered up the bruises
Called the police for ya
Courts just let you go
Three days later,stabbed in the gut
Recovering in the hospital
No more human punch bag

Chorus

Just another battered girl
Just another battered girl
Just another battered girl

I did nothing wrong
I need to move away
I don't want you to find me
I hope I meet a nice guy
No more beatings
No more hurt
No more battered girl

Black and White

Get back to hell

By Nate Marolli

Have you ever tried to pull someone out of poor circumstances and help them grow only for them to fall back into the same bad habits that made them miserable in the first place? This song is about a relationship falling apart because of such a situation. It would suit a punk rock style band who are serious about the dynamics of their music.

When I Believed

By Nick Duer

A love song, or I guess a heartbroken song. Taking you on a trip through the cycle of love, and rejection. Leaving you disillusioned and alone.
