It's Ok To Go

As you lay there in your bed
Many thoughts are going through your head
Can't figure out why god took you this way
He is our master, so you should obey

You can honestly say you learnt for your mistakes alot
Turn a negative into a positive, is what you were taught
Don't look back, don't turn your head twice
Don't be mean, nasty or cruel always try to be nice

So many rules, so many to break
It's up to you, it's what you make
You and you only are the one to blame
Hang your head so low in shame

All alone, with nobody around
Noone to talk to, all but a quite sound
Laying there in a cold bed, in the middle of night
Deciding if it is time to walk toward the light

As you walk toward your destiny
You realize this is what was meant to be
The other side of the light is the end
It's ok to go, you have made amend

Every Time It Really Hurts

Why doesn't he love me
Why can't he see
Every time it really hurts
I don't do anything to get it
But I still get hit
Every time it really hurts
If I don't put my toys away
Have to stand on a very hot tray
Every time it really hurts
Stop crying, act like a man
Or I'll get the back of a hand
Every time it really hurts
Didn't shut off the kitchen tap
Now here comes the leather strap
Every time it really hurts
Stayed up until I saw the moon
He's gone to go get the wooden spoon
Every time it really hurts
Hands, feet, butt, face are very sore
Can't take it anymore
Every time it really hurts
No more, that's it, I'm done
Have to go and get his gun.
It doesn't really hurt anymore.
