A Bitter Pill

(album: Cycle Of Contempt - 2022)

Screaming, beatings, inflicting shame
Waking with dread, every day was the same
Ignorance, prejudice, teaching us lies
Verbal abuse, I just want you to die

I don't want to see your face again
I don't want to know you

Now that you're older you spend time alone
Feeling abandoned and shunned at the home
Your kids do not visit and they never call
What did you do to them when they were small?

I don't want to see your face again
I don't want to know you

Some people tell us that we're supposed to care
Payback's a bitch and in life you just might get your share

Memories linger, to them you're a snake
Pain and abuse, they will never forget your mistakes

Now you're approaching the end of your days
You need attention but nobody pays
Maybe it wasn't the best way to live
No need to ask them 'cause they won't forgive
