Don’t turn away

Don’t turn away

I saw you today and I know you saw me too.
You tried to hide your face though.
Turned the other way, turned the other cheek.
I still saw what you were trying to hide.

Baby it just goes right through me.
I can’t stand to see the pain you are in.
The bruises on your face can’t even match the pain within.
Why do you stay? When you know you should go?

I know the words are so much easier than the actions.
Happiness though is so much better than the pain.
You deserve the love that awaits you beyond the tortured walls.
The walls you now call home with him.

It is time to gather your strength and shattered the walls.
I see the greatness within you and you baby can be so much more.
Just break down those walls and let all the light in.
No need to hide your face, not from me.

I am here, right here waiting for you. Knowing you need to be free.
He doesn’t know what he has in you, right before him.
He has a precious jewel that just needs a little help to shine.
Take away the pain and let you shine.

I know you can shine and I know it isn’t too far gone.
You see the World and I know you want to be part of it.
The prison of his love is not like the love of the World.
He loves you with fury and presses to keep you buried.

Baby it just goes right through me.
I can’t stand to see the pain you are in.
The bruises on your face can’t even match the pain within.
Why do you stay? When you know you should go?

I know the words are so much easier than the actions.
Happiness though is so much better than the pain.
You deserve the love that awaits you beyond the tortured walls.
The walls you now call home with him.

Outside of those tortured walls you will blossom.
You will shine like the precious gem that you are within.
You will learn to love again. Learn to trust again.
You will learn love doesn’t come with pain, it doesn’t come with bruises.

Love comes with some much more than you have ever known.
Don’t turn away cause my love goes so much deeper than the bruises on your skin.
Don’t turn away. Look inside my eyes and watch your beauty reflect within them.
You are a precious gem. Precious in every way for sure.

Break those damn walls and get back in the damn game.
He hasn’t broken your spirit so gather the strength and shatter his.
Turn towards me, don’t turn away!!!!!!
No, don’t turn away.
