I was only a child Who are you to take away my innocence Did you know that at 20 years old I would still look at myself In the mirror and loath who I saw staring back at me? You see, I was told that I am like chewed gum Tainted, unwanted, disgusting No one wants something used Whether I wanted to be used or not It's not fair I WAS JUST A CHILD NOW THAT IM OLDER I HAVE NIGHTMARES PLEASE. LET. ME. BE.

I Will Never Be The Same
I was only a child Who are you to take away my innocence Did you know that at 20 years old I would still look at myself In the mirror and loath who I saw staring back at me? You see, I was told that I am like chewed gum Tainted, unwanted, disgusting No one wants something used Whether I wanted to be used or not It's not fair I WAS JUST A CHILD NOW THAT IM OLDER I HAVE NIGHTMARES PLEASE. LET. ME. BE.
