lyrics

On those summer nights I was at my height
You were waiting until the time was right
Thought you knew your place, though I clearly misread
So I let you rent that space inside my head

You lurked around until I was flat out of luck
You wanted me dead; I was a sitting duck
And then you hit me just below the belt
You made me forget how happiness felt

You learned everything I loved and you flushed it all away
With your devious tactics I couldn’t keep you at bay
And you made your fortress, built trenches and moats
And you hijacked my voice while you were at my throat

You sacked my mind with your Trojan horse
You raped my brain; I couldn’t take no more
You did your worst and I barely survived
It was my one success that I was still alive

You were pickin’ yer teeth, sayin’ “well, that’s that”
And you threw me out sneering “never come back”
So I wandered to the outskirts and I set up camp
Where the trees stood still and the ground was damp

I never shoulda taken that kind of abuse
But in my weakened state, I simply couldn’t refuse
But I won’t forget and I won’t forgive
Don’t expect to sleep easy while I still live
