It's been ten years yet you still linger
in every dark corner that my mind beholds
I wish I could be rid of you, of the scars that you left
I wish I could be rid of you, the nightmares that haunt me

It still feels like yesterday, your hand covering my mouth
I couldn't scream for help. Why did I ever trust you?
My wrists were bruised you held me that tight
I  couldn't escape what you had planned to do

I was only eight, man, who could do that
to someone who was the same age as their sister?
You were like my brother. We grew up together
One day we were family, the next... you were my demon.

I kept my mouth shut, we lived next to each other
It'd be so much easier to pretend that everything was normal
That one time was the only time
you had left me alone, or so I thought

You see your sister, she was like my sister
she was my life, we played all day
So each day I came back to the house
the house with the demon that took my innocence

I was starting to believe I was safe again. I mean,
three years had past. We had become a family again
We played the wii and climbed trees together.
Everything was okay..until it wasn't

It happened again, and again, and again
Oh, I wished I never had trusted you
What did I do that made you do this
Surely this was my fault, right? I couldn't make you stop.
