Redemption

Thrown off track Now put me all back Put my skin back on my body My nose upon my face My legs on hips Tell me they were all okay My passion was no threat to class I was born in the fire Tell me my strength only made you stronger I was always a woman My fine bones reminded you of how easily I slip between your fingertips Tell the truth Everything that I was beautiful in spite of was your campaign You couldn't handle the flame Tell me I will never need the sorries of an already sorry man
