Analysis of Wife Abused.
What gives a man right to abuse the woman he loves
does he thinks okay? does he believe in God above?
She has bruises on her heart, she don't want to hurt anymore
She is tough, but sensitive.
He is schizophrenic, and needs a new life.
She is too scared to leave his side
He knows he scares her he tells her not to hide.
She can't escape his wicked ways
She loves him so much, she does what he says.
He needs to get some sense knocked into him.
