In UK towns gangs raped girls for years
Drugged them, passed them around, laughed at their tears
Police blamed the victims, thought they were at fault
Also didn't want trouble, open up pandora's vault.

The kids were terrorized, sometimes...

While in treetops purple martins, warbled...

Incumbent towers
Upon a warring continent -
