Blood, then saved
I did it again, something my mom considered dumb
I'm not surprised, in this situation I'm numb
Suddenly I see red and black everywhere
Everything telling me that I should be scared
She breaks a glass and starts to scream
Fear running through my blood stream
Grabbing my arm, I fall and then trip
Trying escape her ruthless grip
I cry and cry
She tells me I should die
Years ago I'd agree
But I'm done being told I should bleed
I turn around and bite her hand
She lets go, then scratches my arm, activating my sweat glands
I run and run, back upstairs
Call the police, crying with blood in my hair
I was only about eight or nine
Back then everything made me want to run and hide
Quickly I was put into foster care
When I was a kid, I thought the idea of being saved was rare
