Why?

"Can't afford to leave, but shouldn't stay."

Tears running down my face

As I place ice on my lip

Trying to reduce how much it will swell 

As the corner of my right eye starts to bruise,

Trying to work out what I did?

And also why you think this is okay?

Trying to get out of the way,

Like I've heard said,

so where in different areas

doesn't work you block the path

Jumping over furniture

Whatever it takes.

Reporting you to the police

does nothing but just makes it worse.

So stuck in a vicious cycle,

Where I can't afford to leave

But shouldn't stay either.
