You pray for quiet,
Inside you head the screams won’t silence;
I remember those days...
The terror past our home; the fear that’s in your bones,
It just won’t go away... NO...
The strangle holds, the insulting names,
The world of shit around his fist; the nose to nose beer stinking breath.
Thrown down onto the floor, so battered, bruised and sore
Choke down on the truth of it, and touch it until you break your neck
Hell’s where I was born! Hell’s where I was raised,
This hell is where I’m from and this hell is where I’ll stay.
The hush is all I need, to hush the misery;
The hush that belongs to me, like the hush inside of dreams
Just be still and praaayyy... and let the noise just fade away.
Retain to violence;
Atop your heart like a secret closet,
So no one can penetrate...
You just can’t stand the touch; affection weighs too much,
You push everyone awayyyyyy from...
The reckoning! The bitter stings,
Whipped so bad I pissed myself; still with a beating stub held belt
If this reminds you of home, you better know you’re not alone
Hold the gun up to my head, I'll pull the trigger on myself!!!
Hell’s where I was born! Hell’s where I was raised,
This hell is where I’m from and this hell is where I’ll stay.
The hush is all I need, to hush the misery;
The hush that belongs to me, like the hush inside of dreams
Just be still and praaayyy
These are the memories... In me
You didn’t want to know! You didn’t want to know!
These are the memories we keep
We don’t want to show! We don’t want to show!
By no you need to know, you’re not alone
Hush is all I need, hush the misery;
Hush belongs to me, like the hush inside of dreams
Hell’s where I was born! Hell’s where I was raised,
This hell is where I’m from and this hell is where I’ll stay
The hush is all I need, to hush the misery;
The hush that belongs to me, like the hush inside of dreams
Just be still and praaayyy... and let the noise just fade away...
Inside you head the screams won’t silence;
I remember those days...
The terror past our home; the fear that’s in your bones,
It just won’t go away... NO...
The world of shit around his fist; the nose to nose beer stinking breath.
Thrown down onto the floor, so battered, bruised and sore
Choke down on the truth of it, and touch it until you break your neck
This hell is where I’m from and this hell is where I’ll stay.
The hush is all I need, to hush the misery;
The hush that belongs to me, like the hush inside of dreams
Just be still and praaayyy... and let the noise just fade away.
Atop your heart like a secret closet,
So no one can penetrate...
You just can’t stand the touch; affection weighs too much,

This hell is where I’m from and this hell is where I’ll stay.
The hush is all I need, to hush the misery;
The hush that belongs to me, like the hush inside of dreams
Just be still and praaayyy
You didn’t want to know! You didn’t want to know!
These are the memories we keep

Hell’s where I was born! Hell’s where I was raised,
This hell is where I’m from and this hell is where I’ll stay
The hush is all I need, to hush the misery;
The hush that belongs to me, like the hush inside of dreams
Just be still and praaayyy... and let the noise just fade away...

I find this song beautiful. Not just for the support of knowing you are not alone but the passion and rawness of the song itself. It only contributes to the meaning and power of the song. There isn't many songs like this anymore sadly. When the passion lacks the talent fallows.
I agree with you, the "rawness" of this song is so surreal.
