And she takes another step

Slowly she opens the door

Check that he is sleeping

Pick up all the broken glass

And furniture on the floor

Been up half the night screaming

Now it's time to get away

Pack up the kids in the car

Another bruise to try and hide

Another alibi to write



Another ditch in the road

You keep moving

Another stop sign

You keep moving on

And the years go by so fast

Wonder how I ever made it through



And there are children to think of

Baby's asleep in the back seat

Wonder how they'll ever make it

Through this living nightmare

But the mind is an amazing thing

Full of candy dreams and new toys

And another cheap hotel

Two beds and a coffee machine

But there are groceries to buy

And she knows she'll have to go home



Another ditch in the road

You keep moving

Another stop sign

You keep moving on

And the years go by so fast

Wonder how I ever made it through



Another bruise to try and hide

Another alibi to write

Another lonely highway in the black of night

There's hope in the darkness

I know you're gonna make it



Another ditch in the road

Keep moving

Another stop sign

You keep moving on

And the years go by so fast

Silent fortress built to last

Wonder how I ever made it
