& he left me
sitting there on the bed
a bottle of sailor jerry to left
and a full pack of ciggarettes on the right
He says he'll love me no matter what
I beg and plead at him to leave me alone
Let me wallow in self pity
Let me feel like I've hit rock bottom
Let me feel like I'm alone
He says in that sweet voice
That nothing could ever change how he feels about me
He knows it wasn't my fault
Hell he'd go back just to try to stop it
I told him how hard I tried to fight back
Of course I wasn't strong enough
That man took what he wanted from me...and he left me on that sidewalk to die
That man took away my hope, left it scattered like the polyester from a rag doll all along the street
He says that he could never love me less
He says that I'm stronger, because I'm a survivor
I wish he only knew
I wish he knew that every night I pray that I don't wake up again
Although I am a little more than relieved to see him
When I wake up from a nightmare, where I did not get away
& he's there to hold me close

at least he's there to hold you, thats important. some people don't have anyone to hold them. some people are raped by the one thats supposed to hold them.
i'm sorry you went through what you did, nobody should have to. some guys are just so insensetive and perverse sometimes. -
thats how it is with my fiance and me
hes there to hold me for every flash back and to tell me im strong, but im anything but strong--im weak
thanx for entering & good luck

this really hits a personal note for me.. you've put the emotions into words that ive been feeling for a long time and just wow.. i mean-after what happens you are changed forever, and people say you are so strong how do you do it, you are so brave... well im not brave & im not strong, i too pray i dont wake up-for a plane engine to crash into my bedroom ceiling, a car crash, anything that will relieve the misery i find myself surrounded in.. i really like this, id like to get to know you better (& I dont say that a lot)
[[*they never knew fish had feelings*]] :it was the 90's what do you expect? still a decent song or atleast the chorus which i replay over and over again.. x]
