She was only 17
And forced to blame it on herself
That she hides away to tame the pain she feels
She was fallen to a scene
A drunken man a violent will
And the God that makes mistakes
And still pretends
And I'll be strong
And I will say
And I will take your pain away
And I'll be strong
And I will say
And I will take your pain away
She was only trying to breath
Her broken nails had sliced his skin
As he bruised her face she fades away again
When she came to at the scene
A fever wind and a match in hand
As she watched the flames she felt love again
And I'll be strong
And I will say
And I will take your pain away
And I'll be strong
And I will say
And I will take your pain away
Can you feel?
Can you feel?
Can you feel?
Can you feel?
And I'll be strong
And I will say
And I will take your pain away
And I'll be strong
And I will say
And I will take your pain away
Can you feel?
Can you feel?
Can you feel?
Can you feel?
And forced to blame it on herself
That she hides away to tame the pain she feels
She was fallen to a scene
A drunken man a violent will
And the God that makes mistakes
And still pretends
And I'll be strong
And I will say
And I will take your pain away
And I'll be strong
And I will say
And I will take your pain away
She was only trying to breath
Her broken nails had sliced his skin
As he bruised her face she fades away again
When she came to at the scene
A fever wind and a match in hand
As she watched the flames she felt love again
And I'll be strong
And I will say
And I will take your pain away
And I'll be strong
And I will say
And I will take your pain away
Can you feel?
Can you feel?
Can you feel?
Can you feel?
And I'll be strong
And I will say
And I will take your pain away
And I'll be strong
And I will say
And I will take your pain away
Can you feel?
Can you feel?
Can you feel?
Can you feel?

This is a very scary thing... and I relate because something like this happens to me. Not that I've been in an abusive relationship but I often end up in some volatile ones.
Sometimes you spend time with someone and all of a sudden you realize how much you've been living for them and how far away from yourself you actually are. That you've grown to adapt to their faults too much, to the point where it is harmful to you.
I see this in this girl. How she has ended up in this abusive relationship but when he beats her in his drunken stupor she gets the sense to burn him down. She has been numb for the time she has spent with him, but now she gains the sense to feel once again.
