You pray for quiet
Inside your head the screams won′t silence
I remember those daysThe terror that's the home
The fear that′s in your bones
It just won't go away
No
The strangle holds, the insulting names
The wound up shirt around his fist
The nose to nose, beer-stinking breath
Thrown down onto the floor
So battered, bruised and sore
Thrown down onto the bed
And thrash until you break your neck
Hell's where I was born
Hell′s where I was raised
This hell is where I′m from
And this hell is where I'll stay
The hush is all I need
To hush the misery
The hush that belongs to me
Like the hush inside a dream
Just be still and pray
And let the noise just fade away
Retain the violence
Locks up your heart like a secret closet
So no one can penetrate
You just can′t stand the touch
Affection weighs too much
You push everyone away from
The reckoning
The venom stings
Whipped so bad I pissed myself
Still wear the beatings from that belt
If this reminds you of home
You better know you're not alone
Hold the gun up to my head
I′ll pull the trigger on myself
Hell's where I was born
Hell′s where I was raised
This hell is where I'm from
And this hell is where I'll stay
The hush is all I need
To hush the misery
The hush that belongs to me
Like the hush inside a dream
Just be still and pray
These are the memories in me
You didn′t wanna know
You didn′t wanna know
These are the memories we keep
We don't wanna show
We don′t wanna show
But now at least you know, you're not alone
Hush is all I need
Hush the misery
Hush belongs to me
Like the hush inside a dream
Hell′s where I was born
Hell's where I was raised
This hell is where I′m from
And this hell is where I'll stay
The hush is all I need
To hush the misery
The hush that belongs to me
Like the hush inside a dream
Just be still and pray
And let the noise just fade away
