Deep Dark Basement

I recall that deep dark basement

I recall how bad it smelled

And I hated everyone around me

I even hated myself

Which I still do

On my bad days

You punched my mother in the mouth

We fled to shelter safe and pure

Now I never feel at home

I will never be secure

Oh to be secure

And when you pushed my face in shit

How could that have made you feel

Like a man or like a monster

It's your fault that I can't tell

The difference
