lyrics

A little boy breaks his skull
On a bunk bed
As the step-monster screams
And the Mother struggles to survive

Lonsdale Ave had a dirty little secret

For 3 years
3 years of beatings
3 years of blow
And enough drink
To drown a town's worth of feelings

I know a dirty little secret

There's no life left in your eyes / boy
Everything's too heavy and I'm ready to die

He (John Matthews) was a hunter
An ex-military man
The truest sheep
In wolves' clothing
With a kind and warming way

I watched her face get smashed
Countless times
With the back of his hand
The same hand
That punched me
And tossed me like a rag doll

There's no life left in your eyes / boy
Everything's too heavy and I'm ready to die
