I need Lyrics to a song about an abusive relationship?

I'm doing a project for "Breathing Underwater" by Alex Flinn. And one of the projects is to have 2 songs and a poem or 2 poems and a song. I was wondering if anyone knew of any besides "Face Down" by The Red Jumpsuit Apparatus. I already have that one. But please I need help... I've been on for a while and cant find any... any help will do.

Here are two, hope they help.

"Luka" by Suzanne Vega

My name is Luka
I live on the second floor
I live upstairs from you
Yes, I think you've seen me before.
If you hear something late at night,
some kind of trouble some kind of fight
Just don't ask me what it was,
Just don't ask me what it was,
Just don't ask me what it was.
I think it's `cos I'm clumsy
I try not to talk too loud,
Maybe it's because I'm crazy
I try not to act too proud,
They only hit until you cry,
and after that you don't ask why
You just don't argue anymore,
You just don't argue anymore,
You just don't argue anymore.
Yes, I think I'm okay
Walked into the door again,
If you ask, that's what I'll say
and it's not your business anyway
I guess I'd like to be alone
with nothing broken, nothing thrown
Just don't ask me how I am,
Just don't ask me how I am,
Just don't ask me how I am.

You just don't argue anymore,
You just don't argue any more.


"Never Again" by Nickelback

He's drunk again, it's time to fight
She must have done something wrong tonight
The living room becomes a boxing ring
It's time to run when you see him clenching his hands
She's just a woman... never again

I hear her scream from down the hall
Amazing she can even talk at all
She cries to me... "go back to bed"
I'm terrified that she'll wind up dead in his hands
She's just a woman... never again

Been there before but not like this
Seen it before but not like this
Never before have I ever seen it this bad
She's just a woman... never again

Just tell the nurse you slipped and fell
It starts to sting as it starts to swell
She looks at you... she wants the truth
It's right out there in the waiting room with those hands
Lookin' just as sweet as he can... never again

Seen it before but not like this
Been there before but not like this
Never before have I ever seen it this bad
She's just a woman... never again

Father's a name you haven't earned yet
You're just a child with a temper
Haven't you heard "don't hit a lady"
Kickin' your *** would be a pleasure

He's drunk again, it's time to fight
Same old ****, just on a different night
She grabs the gun, she's had enough
Tonight she'll find out how ******' tough is this man
Pulls the trigger fast as she can... never again

Seen it before but not like this
Been there before but not like this
Never before have I ever seen it this bad
She's just a woman... never again

Songs About An Abusive Relationship

It's so sad to feel the hurt again .does it ever go away will the memories fade away. They hit the yell they hurt you more than any one could, your gave them yourself and this is what you get
is it for a life time or just a small part of your life taken away, why. Do they not care, can they not see how much you cared. They took it all away and gave you back a broken heart, broken arm,
and now that there gone all I have is a hurtful lonely heart.

"Goodbye Earl"
by the Dixie Chicks

Mary Anne and Wanda were the best of friends
All through thier high school days
Both members of the 4H club
Both active in the FFA
After graduation Mary Anne went out lookin'

for a bright new world
Wanda looked all around this town
And all she found was Earl
Well it wasn't two weeks
After she got married that

Wanda started gettin' abused
She put on dark glasses and long sleeved blouses
And make up to cover a bruise
Well she finally got the nerve to file for divorce
She let the law take it from there

But Earl walked right through that restraining order
And put her in intensive care
Right away Mary Anne flew in from Atlanta
On a red eye midnight flight

She held Wanda's hand as they
Worked out a plan
And it didn't take 'em long to decide
That Earl had to die
Goodbye Earl

Those black-eyed peas
They tasted all right to me Earl
You're feelin' weak
Why don't you lay down
And sleep Earl

Ain't it dark

Wrapped up in that tarp Earl
The cops came by to bring Earl in
They searched the house

High and low
Then they tipped thier hats
And said "thank you ladies if you hear from him let us know"
Well the weeks went by and

Spring turned to Summer
And Summer faded into Fall
And it turns out he was a missing person
Who nobody missed at all
So the girls bought some land

And a roadside stand
Out on Highway 109
They sell Tennessee ham
And strawberry jam

And they don't
Lose any sleep at night 'cause
Earl had to die
Goodbye Earl

We need a break
Let's go out to the lake Earl
We'll pack a lunch
And stuff you in the trunk Earl

Well is that all right
Good Let's go for a ride
Earl Hey

...hope this helped...good luck...=)
