Sex & the Soul of a Woman (A Letter To Sex)

You You took away the confident person that I once knew I was Made me choose things that I wouldn't normally choose All because You wanted my soul But because of you My soul is empty and cold From people who have took from it pieces and bits But I'll willingly give you whats left of it You see I don't want to do this And everytime I do this, its not as beautiful as I meant it to be But its always as shameful as you meant it to be For me You had me Even as a child You should have finished it You used THEM to take away my innocence Let them scar me, and left me abused Only to get older and be misused By you in the same way The same crave You got me I'm your slave But no more No I'm not a pure virgin And yes I have been soiled And sometimes I see myself tying a rope around my neck and watching it coil Around my fingers as I slip in and out of conscience But this is your fault you made me like this You made me think I was ugly Thought I needed you to breathe Thought I wasn't good enough Forgot I was worthy But No More -Lyric-
