Eggshells

You light the gas
The shattered glass
That she would call, call her mind

Apologises
One more time
As soon as you walk, walk inside

Throw down your stella
And start to yell at her
And I thought you made a vow

So what are you doing?
Three days, one woman
The eggshells won't hold her now

She loves you
How could you?
There's no refuge for her here

But if she goes
She'll always know
The power over her you hold

I see the bruises
But still she "chooses to lie"
About their source

Restrained by fear
Nobody sees her
Sobbing on the bathroom floor

When you advance
With fists for hands
And I thought you made a vow

You lose control
It's all her fault
The eggshells don't hold her now

She loves you
How could you?
There's no refuge for her here

But if she goes
She'll always know
The power over her you hold
