Last summer I got drugged at a party
I felt my soul leave my body
The day I heard the news
My blood reached my skin
Faster than my hands grabbed her throat
I couldn't find it within me to seek revenge
Because I knew what had happened
And how this all tied together
No matter what I did I couldn't escape
The ties I made in the past
And it was my fault they kept sneaking back
In cheap beers on June nights
I'm sorry I didn't fight for myself then
Because now I don't have the strength
