Release Me and Turn Off the Lights
He came into my life when I was just a little girl
I was happy and young, and then he changed my
world.
One night I was in bed and he came to say good night.
Except he took a little longer before he turned out the
lights.
He really hurt me that night, and I did'nt know what to do
I thought it happened to most every little boy and girl
I lay in bed that night, hurting inside and out
tears rolling from my little face screaming trying not
to shout.
I put that tragic night in the back of my head, and
grew up
because there was nothing to be said.
I thought it would only happen once, or maybe when
I had done something bad, but from two years old
to eight years old the longer the lights stayed on.
how would I of known he was wrong or knew it was
bad.
I just felt sad and all alone.
All I do is mope and cry, with dirty feelings inside.
No one understands what I feel each day
Please someone take my hand to
Never never land!
Anything is better than here!!!
I cut myself sometimes when the pain gets to much
I have to release something out
I hate him so much and where he used to touch.
I hope someone hears my cries, and I hope they
understand what he put me through and what
he caused.
I keep having nightmares of this man.
I feel that for me, there is no way out
I just want to scream, scream and shout.
