She used to pray on her knees
And Pops had nothing to let his anger on
Deep at night, I'm awaken from my dreams

She says, "Baby, please don't, don't do this"
Don't end my life, you're all I need"

He cries harder and harder

She covers her eyes and hides
Save him, save him from the hand that he beats me on"
Save him, save him from the hand that he beats me on

Staying soul mates forever now
And baby cries, he cries his eyes out
Oh, he beat her cold, yes he did

Next door, yelling, cries, mercy, she is begging, "Please
She cries harder and harder
You see twenty years ago

And it goes on forever and ever
When she was just ten years old
And smacks her down
Seems like they've made it to the other side
'Till she falls to the ground
Lost in imagination, she was left alone
He beat her cold
He brings her to her feet 'til she can no longer stand
That have stained their souls together now
And a, "Darling, I would never leave, never leave"
Oh, and over and over again
Darker clouds cover her paradise
And says to her, "Stop crying and bring me my son"
And she walks through the night
Oh, and still the beating never ends
Save him, save him from the hand that he beats me on
She said "Save him, save him from the hand that he beats me on

Laughing and kissing, it's a match made in Heaven
Oh, she quickly loses breath and then rushes to the bed
She's come back, hostage
Oh, two shots to her chest and a blow to his own head
Save him, save him from the hand that he beats me on
Deep at night, I'm awakened from my dreams
Next door, yelling, cries, mercy, she's begging, "Please"
Save him, save him from the hand that he beats me on"
Behind the rings on their fingers
Where the grass is greener
Save him, save him from the hand that he beats me on
Laughing and kissing, it's a match made in Heaven
Save him, save him from the hand that he beats me on"
On and on and on he goes, until he brings out a gun
Save him, save him from the hand that he beats me on

Begging, "Please," begging, "Please"
And then she prayed on her knees
Seems like they never let each other go
Imprints the ink deep in the inner

And the sky is always blue
With her child in her arms
"Get up, get up," he brings her to her feet
But there is only room for two

Save him, save him from the hand that he beats me on
She loves him more, he loves her more
Behind enemy lines
"Save him, save him from the hand that he beats me on
She said "Save him, save him from the hand that he beats me on
