They whisper about you Like the wind whispers in the leaves But instead of a calm summer breeze It's a lightning storm of bitter words Your mother calls you her son And while that might have been solace once Now it's a mask you hide behind You are her son But you're also her daughter Your friends become a pack of jackals Just when you need them most Turning their backs with glittering eyes Their tongues stained with lies 'She' is such an enigmatic word It could mean anyone But you think of the witch that hurt you Will you ever not see her in your mind? What was once love has soured Because of her Tu ne s'aime pas You don't love her You did But you've found your freedom The sliver of light in a dark cave The wanton brush of an angel's wing A savior to pull you from this abyss Maybe I can be that savior Tu ne s'aime pas
