Binds her limbs with strings of leather
Makes casual talk about the weather
Silenced by his filthy rag
The taste of him still makes her gag!
Desperate plans race through her brain
Her muffles screams push on in vain
His voice demands a wage on war
She's punched and dragged across the floor
He secures all doors and windows tight
She won't be leaving here tonight!
He's lost all reasoning and lost his mind
Her will to live seems out of time
The barricade keeps her locked away
Within a huddle she finds space to pray!
Wailing sirens scream-out, "POLICE"!
Then from the nightmare she finds release
She finds escape and does survive
Though she suffered, she IS alive!
Odds were stacked against her favour
Yet God was always there to save her
