Cry yourself to sleep, young child
It will happen no other way
When you only hear slurred words of hatred
It is the end of another heartbreaking day
Hide under your blankets, Teddy in hand
What else can you do
When in the distance she screams "Get Out!"
Teddy will protect you
For where would you be if he went away
And only she were there?
With drink in hand and venom on tongue,
She can not possibly care
So cling tightly to Teddy
You can tell him all your fears
But be sure to whisper quietly
So Mommy and Daddy do not hear
