Rewrite of Kiss song Love Is A Slap In The Face
Let it bring you up
Never ever let it knock you
Or take you down
Drag your broken heart all over town
Tell you how you life should be livin'
Ain't supposed to hurt
Supposed to be Heaven
Not a newfound Hell
Baby, baby
It's a happy life
You should be livin'
I never thought I'd see the day
You would call hurtin' good
Oh no no
I never knew
Never dreamed
So easy
You could lose yourself
God girl, how can you sit there denying?
He's taking you 6 feet down
And you're lettin' him so easy
Oh why oh why
Before the end
Won't you please just listen?
At no time should love be a slap in the face
If you get burned
Why would you wanna go back?
Make again that same ole mistake
Don't ask for my opinion
If you can't take it
Cause this is the truth
Gay or straight
Baby, love should never be a slap in the face
Singin' na na na na na
Na na na na na
Oh Hell na, woman
The horror story of your life and love
Oh it's got such a dreadful hold on me
I can hardly bear it
So sad and bitter
Plain as day to see
He turned your life upside down
Poisoned you from the inside out
Don't know or understand why
So often it fails to make you stand up to him and shout
I never dreamed
You'd get so bent
Hellbent on hurting yourself
Breaking yourself
Dyin' watching you deny it
Baby, are you really not feelin' that pain
Chorus
I never knew one woman
Once so brave
Once so bright
Ooh I never believed she'd fool herself
Into running away into that devil's night
I love you
But I can't stand here
Standing by just watching silently forever, babe
I can't
I won't keep hidin'
Your darkest secret inside
Oh no no
Love should never be no abusive ball and chain
Weight, weighting you down
It should't beat you up for hurtin' in the night
It should't start some unneeded fight
Should't drive you insane
Oh baby, don't say you want my opinion
Cause it just hurts too much
Tryin' to explain
Then watchin' you still walk away
With that same mean ole ball and chain
Into an early, untimely woman's grave
Singin' na na na na
Na na na na na na
Oh Hell na na na na , woman
