10 year old Sugar-doll Marie Boxer, stood there and watched her drunken father beat her mother, she had long red hair, and blue-green eyes, which were now filled with fear.
What kind of man lays his hands on the women he loves?
Calls her angel, but shows no remorse in her blood
He covers her body in bruises and scars
You don't understand just how beautiful you are
She couldn`t believe that her father would do this. Drunk or not. They had acted like they loved each other. But apperently not. The bruises on her face and body, she lied to her daughter. She told her she had fell...
You are too beautiful
Your heart wants something more
Those shades of blue on that face of yours
Hides that smile that beats in your chest
Sugar let warm tears run down her face. He was done beating her, and she tried to get up and walk away, but he pushed her down again.
When he's done with her beating
He just stands aside
Wipes the sweat from his brow
And yells over her cries
"You don't know what I've been through!"
He yells and he says
"You don't know what I've done for you!"
And hits her again
He left the house with his suitcase in his hand. When he leaves, Sugar jumps up and runs over to her mother. She put her in bed and took care of her. The next morning, her mother examines her bruises and scars.
She stands in the mirror
She looks less alive
She lifts up her shirt to see she has five
Branded fingers on her side
She's feeling it all now
But she doesn't cry
She doesn't cry
``Mom? Is Dad gonna hurt you anymore?`` Sugar said as climbed into her mother`s bed. ``No Shug... He`s gone, and we`ll be okay.`` She replied as she leaned over and gave her daughter a hug.
You are too beautiful
Your heart wants something more
Those shades of blue on that face of yours
Hides that smile that beats in your chest
