I go through phases of cleaning And I mean cleaning everything Your room, my room The entire city I could clean and clean But still feel ***** I'm becoming OCD Obsessive Compulsively Dicking around What's gonna happen to me, When he finally gets out? It's not like I look in the mirror and see something I don't want to see But I can't help but feel just a little ***** Ever since he touched me When I didn't wanna be Touched A three month sentence For a life long pain If it wasn't for my strength, He wouldn't even know my name He'll never know hers                or hers                     or hers But I made sure he knows mine I wonder if in just three months He's had enough time To remember my name For the rest of his life To remember my name As I unconciously recite his I wonder if he missed his kid If he called his mom Or if she called him Twelve people sat in the jury that day And I wonder how many of them Truly believed that three months Was enough time To bring justice To anyone I wonder if even one of them Would change their mind If they heard what I had to say tonight If they could hear me I'd make sure they knew I spent two years Believing in a justice system that never came through That I'll spend the rest of my life Wondering, trying to be tough Wishing I could finally get clean enough And he got three months

Three Months
I go through phases of cleaning And I mean cleaning everything Your room, my room The entire city I could clean and clean But still feel ***** I'm becoming OCD Obsessive Compulsively Dicking around What's gonna happen to me, When he finally gets out? It's not like I look in the mirror and see something I don't want to see But I can't help but feel just a little ***** Ever since he touched me When I didn't wanna be Touched A three month sentence For a life long pain If it wasn't for my strength, He wouldn't even know my name He'll never know hers                or hers                     or hers But I made sure he knows mine I wonder if in just three months He's had enough time To remember my name For the rest of his life To remember my name As I unconciously recite his I wonder if he missed his kid If he called his mom Or if she called him Twelve people sat in the jury that day And I wonder how many of them Truly believed that three months Was enough time To bring justice To anyone I wonder if even one of them Would change their mind If they heard what I had to say tonight If they could hear me I'd make sure they knew I spent two years Believing in a justice system that never came through That I'll spend the rest of my life Wondering, trying to be tough Wishing I could finally get clean enough And he got three months
