Raped
I guess you didnt get the point
and I told you that I'd do it
mommy you didn't listen
thats why I cut right through it
the vain on my wrists
keep me connected to you
keeping me traped in hell
a feeling I should know
by now all to well
But the blood that flows
now below my feet
hide the lustful man
that I was forced to meet
"Mommy please no he hates me!"
"Mommy stop him he tried to RAPE me!"
but you didn't mind a word I said
he was your husband
and you acted deaf
Well he finally did it
when I was seven years old
until I was sixteen
he hurt me mommy
I will never let it be
because for nine years
he used me as a slave
making me do
what he wanted each day
my secrets out
now where do you side
not where you should mother,
your just another lie
in life that was lost along the way
mother this is what I always wanted to say
You make me feel worthless
and he touched me
mommy, daddy made me want to die
but you made me hate me
you told me I was a lier
and called me insane
maybe thats why
I go by so many different names
but even then my inner child
died all the same
