My heart races
My throat gets tighter
Now I can't say no
My eye brows furrow
And you think I like it
But tears drip slowly
From my eyes
My body trembles
And blood trickles
Down my thighs

How much
Have I lost
To a man
A man with his arms
That hold me down
A man with his hands
That choke me out
A man with his d*ck
That ends my life as I knew it
this man was written by a woman
If only I could stare into your deep blue eyes forever,
that I might get a glimpse into your soul.

If you'd dance with me once more,
so I can feel your hands on my waist.

And if you’d kiss me,
I'm afraid you'd make me believe in love.
as the sun is to the moon
so I am to you
though oceans divide us
dawn will come soon
you will hear me when you play the smiths,
taste me when you throw back Jim Beam
you will feel me when you swim in the river,
see me when you close your eyes to sleep  

you will drink until you can’t stand,
aching for my love
and then you will remember what you did
left the baby layin in blood
sunshine in my heart
you were shade.
flowers in my hair
you made them fade.
honey on your lips
so bittersweet.
with the words goodbye
you set me free.

I am free
I am free
I am free
carved into stone
like a greek goddess
that’s what he wishes me to be
beautiful, frozen, silent
