So Kind

She does everything for him, and she does so much
She tries so hard to please, so hard to trust
Can’t she see what we see?
You say love can’t be that blind
Well, it sure isn’t easy, sure isn’t kind
She says, «He's a real good man, when he doesn’t drink
And he hasn’t been violent in at least a week
And when he says he’s sorry, he seems so sweet»
So kind, she keeps running for more
She’s so kind, like her mother before
It’s all she’s ever known
It’s better than being alone
«We try to talk about it when things are calm
And he shoots that angry glare like I’ve done something wrong
And then he turns away and won’t respond»
The cycle goes on and on
So kind, she keeps running for more
She’s so kind, like her mother before
It’s all she’s ever known
It’s better than being alone
