You changed my life quickly, in the blink of an eye
And I’ll always be wondering, exactly how and why
I used to be so confident, but not anymore
Now I can’t do things that I used to do before
Like walk around this town without this knot of fear
Not knowing if you or anyone who knows is even here
Does anyone remember or can tell me what I did?
I so want to know, but reopen wounds with every bid
To find out what happened, it’s what I have to do
But what if all the answers then lead right back to you?
You took away my power, memory, control
But you couldn’t touch who I am deep in my soul
Did you get what you wanted? I really hope you didn’t
I long for some kind of justice but every day there isn’t
It tears me up to think you could be doing the same
To somebody else out there, like it’s some kind of game
It’s too much to hope that you even care or think
About what you’re doing when you spike someone’s drink
