Ghost of Boyfriends Past
Beaten and abused
Raped and confused
With the promise of forever
The promise of love
I carry this load
I carry it to you
My wounds you sewed
My skies you made blue
They still haunt me
I'm still in pain
Please, set me free
I'm living in vain
I fought for the good
I died from the bad
If only you understood
If only a tad
I'm beyond repair
Please don't stare
Be my savior
Be my everything
