Contempt Songtext

von Warzone

I remember the first time I saw what they did
We were still young, just little kids
The pain, the hurt, the bruises you had
And all the beatings from your dad

Hey, your mom would get drunk
Join in on the fun
It's time for a beat down
And you're the target on the run

Living in a hell, but no one believes
There could be anything wrong with your perfect family
So you did what they said and didn't wind up dead
Every night before bed your sheets would turn to red

For years you stuck it out, too scared to reach out
Memories you thought were dead
Tears that felt like lead
Pain and terror is back again
Your dreams won't let go
You want revenge, it's all you know

Now you're older, not scared anymore
The ones that hurt you have to pay
Been waiting years for this judgement day
The time is now for you to have your say
I'll stand by your side like I have for years
And we'll never forget all the tears
It's time to put this in the past
Go on with your life at last.
