I lied there tainted with corruption
You took what little bit of purity I had left with force
A red stamp of fright across my face
An amber alert sent out for your remorse

I was numb with disbelief
My helplessness was your trophy of pride
A tear never shed and a word never screamed
But internally I had wished I would’ve died

Gruesome scenes of aggressive behavior
Dreams of running away
The light was never shed on your disgusting actions
And I gather myself from shattering ‘til this day

Move on from it like a storm over a garden
Put a brave face and let them believe it’s true
I still flinch when someone is lying next to me
You’ve cracked my porcelain but I forgive you
