Song information
I lost all my original parts to this song so I had to re-do this from scratch. Joyce kindly offered to do the vocals. I asked for power and emotion and she certainly delivered on both (and then some). It' about domestic abuse and the strength and courage it takes to break free from it.

Lyrics
Do what you want I don’t care anymore
You might as well kick me now I’m down on the floor
I tried so hard to keep it together
But now you’ve gone too far I’m at the end of my tether

It’s just not easy admitting even though I know it’s true
I can’t stop being a victim while I’m with you

I just can’t take anymore

It’s just not easy admitting even though I know it’s true
I can’t stop being a victim while Im with you

What do you do when your black and blue and you’ve 
Nowhere to run nowhere to hide
You can’t complain or you’ll feel more pain until your
Completely empty inside

If I want to be free there’s only one thing I can do
Accept that it’s not me……………It’s you

You told me you’d stop when I threatened to leave you
You said that you loved me and like a fool I believed you
Then it all started again but this time I’ll remember
I’ll remember the pain when you loose your temper

When I carry the marks of your anger I feel so ashamed
I can’t help feeling responsible that I’m somehow to blame

I just can’t take anymore

It’s just not easy admitting even though I know it’s true
I’ll never stop being a victim while I’m with you

Hey Shaun...I don't know what to say- except thank you for trusting me with your musical child. To be able to write a song like this, being a man  for a woman, is talent of its own, besides your musical abilities. Now this what I call the 'apartment version' cause I needed to be .. kind of quiet!  Didn't want the neighbors to get worried!
Thanks to also those who listen and/or comment.. Hope to work with you again.. Your fan, Joyce

Fabulous song, and a powerful, passionate vocal, great lyrics, wonderful mix and effects. Thank you Shaun and Joyce.  This music reminds me one of my favorite bands, Concrete Blonde.  Beautiful song indeed.
