[Intro, soft spoken] Stopped my car, picked her up, soaked, tears on her face we drove in silence, rain beating down, until she said... [Verse 1] She’s a game he plays answers his call 'stupid bitch' tears drowning her will never wash away her pain She finds herself trapped again wears the weight of all his sins the chains in her mind the chains in her mind [Verse 2] His brute words chip away pieces of her soul he crushed the roses she arranged at dinner cut her favorite dress to nothing leaving her so numb, she doesn’t protest [Verse 3] So easy to anger—slight look, wrong word he lashes out to strike erupting blood in her mouth she tells herself it means he loves her battered bruises, proof of her devotion [Verse 4] Her friends snapped, “Get the hell out. You’re on your own fool.” She dreams she could escape caught in the same maze every day of empty passion and hurt praying he will change someday just stop, free her body, let her go [Verse 5] But tonight she fought the urge to submit beneath his fists running instead into the dark rain hitch-hiking in fear for a way back to the free person she once was [Verse 6] She’s a game he plays answers his call "stupid bitch" tears drowning her will never wash away her pain She finds herself trapped again wears the weight of all his sins the chains in her mind the chains in her mind
