Never Known A Man To Bleed

Verse 1/
He’s out all night and I work all day,
This is the life I lead,
When man made woman,
Was this his intention?
He smokes and I cry,
He drinks, inside I die,
The granted I’m taken for,
The seed you planted I don’t want to grow no more.

Chorus/
I’m on my own almost every day,
He doesn’t care about me,
And he don’t got much to say,
He beats me when intoxicated,
I cry on the floor totally defeated,
Oh,
I’ve never known a man to bleed,
I’ve never known a man to bleed,
I’ve never known a man to bleed,
Not like me.

Verse 2/
I feed him dinner he throws it back at me,
Goes straight back to the weed,
Is this what I deserve?
Black eyes and blue cheeks,
The tears fall at night too often now.

Chorus/
I’m on my own almost every day,
He doesn’t care about me,
And he don’t got much to say,
He beats me when intoxicated,
I cry on the floor totally defeated,
Oh,
I’ve never known a man to bleed,
I’ve never known a man to bleed,
I’ve never known a man to bleed,
Not like me.

Get off the floor and clean this mess,
Or you won’t be welcome no more,
Hit you, I beat you,
Until you can’t breathe anymore,
Lying on the bathroom floor,
Shouting ‘hear me scream,
Hear me scream,
Oh wont you hear me scream?’
I’ve never known a man to bleed.

I’ve never known a man to bleed,
I’ve never known a man to bleed,
I’ve never ever, ever known a man to bleed.

Chorus/
I’m on my own almost every day,
He doesn’t care about me,
And he don’t got much to say,
He beats me when intoxicated,
I cry on the floor totally defeated,
Oh,
I’ve never known a man to bleed,
I’ve never known a man to bleed,
I’ve never known a man to bleed,
Not like me.
I’ve never known a man to bleed,
I’ve never known a man to bleed,
I’ve never ever, ever known a man to bleed,
Not like me.
