Who Do You Think You Are?





Who do you think you are
you who steals my innocence
you who strikes my heart
thrust after thrust
you kill my spirit
laughing you speak
but I can't hear you
I don't want to hear you
you strike me again
and continue in your fun
help me, someone
it hurts, help me please
and suddenly it stops
and you leave
a tear creeps down my cheek
as shame fills me
I fall asleep
and watch you fade
as I try to forget.

Who do you think you are
you who steals my joy
you who judges my heart
why can't you listen
why do you condemn me
I didn't want it to happen
he did it to me
please, someone hear me
It hurts, it won't stop
someone help me
I close my eyes
and see him again
striking me, laughing,
fear fills me
anger burns inside
as I strike back
as I lash out at you
shaking, I collapse
as I try to hide it.

Who do you think you are
you who cares for me
you who stays with me
why do you try
why do you care
look at me, filthy and angry,
I'm not worth your effort
just let me be
or take the pain away
I can see him again
but I don't run
you won't let me
and so I watch
tears falling
you hug me, comforting me
sitting there with me
waiting, watching,
as I finally let it go.
