Permanent Rough Patch

Verse 1
Quick, shut the door,
It's just the start of another war,
Cry quietly, be brave,
The storm will stop but you will hear the rain,

Verse 2
Footsteps, so silent,
Screams that never promise the end,
"It's all your fault",
Don't listen, I promise it's not,

Breakdown
Over and over again,
It's been 6 months, what did you expect?

Chorus
Within seconds everything turned black,
The joker once there, but then the devil's back,
They're shouting, blaming you for that,
Stuck in a permanent rough patch,

Verse 3
Monday, they start again,
Smiles all round, but you're not content,
A family where egg shells,
Are all they know,

Verse 4
She promised changed,
"He'll stop, I swear that he will one day",
You're so tired,
You've lost all of your fire,

Breakdown
In 6 months it will happen again,
Who's to blame, I bet you can guess,

Chorus
Within seconds everything turned black,
The joker once there, but then the devil's back,
They're shouting, blaming you for that,
Stuck in a permanent rough-

Middle 8
I'm sick of always being to blame,
And that no matter what it always ends the same,
Tell him I can't do this,
I can't do this,

End
Within seconds everything turned black,
The joker once there, but then the devil's back,
They're shouting, blaming you for that,
Stuck in a permanent rough patch.
