about

Wishing the worst on those who take innocence and childhood (2000)

lyrics

If this is romance
I hope it hurts you
I hope it brings the walls of your world crashing down

If she would only
Tell this simple story
I’m sure that we would see an end to this disgrace

But sadly this wish
Seems so unlikely
And all the time the pain must stay locked inside

Her tiny body
That knows no safety
While her tiny mind searches for a place to hide

Just try to look around you
Just try to feel inside you
Just try to cut those ties away

For he will use you
Try to persuade you
To sacrifice the one and only thing he needs

Well let me help you
Let me show you
Why this way of life cannot be justified

Try to understand
All these things are true
Against all teaching even of this septic world

Your tiny mind should
Understand only
That your tiny body should be left to itself

Just try to look around you
Just try to feel inside you
Just try to cut those ties away
