Why Shes So Afraid of the Dark by Jandell Thomas John Lyrics

Genre: misc | Year: 2011

She never really had a problem with the dark
that is up until she was thirteen
It was only then the voice and hands
so similar to that of the man
she called daddy,appeared.
Wreaking havoc and disturbing her sleep
it was at that tender age calloused hands
stealthily sneaked up her sheets,stifling
her screams and subduing her writhing body
her protests it seems,were unwelcome
Not to mention unheard and as if not enough absurd
one night before her real life nightmare began
in walked her disgruntled mother with a belt in hand
and for several miuntes rained blows
while spitting venom laced words
"I will not lose my husband jus cause
you can't do what you're told"
left broken and bruised and with the
knowledge she'd later on be used
she sat with her lights on,'til
heavy footfalls down the hall
let her know it was time, followed by the
sickening sound of a zipper as it slides
and then *click* off go the lights.
Now that I know i wish i'd never asked
why she is so terrified of the dark.
