The man left through my window leaving me to gather ny clothes and go downstairs to tell my mom I was leaving I went into her room and woke her up careful not to wake up dad knowing he'd beat us both mom for letting me go And me for waking them up so late and asking to leave"you going with vic sweetheart" I just nodded my head my mom New I where I went and why I went if I went in the middle of the night then she figured I dreamt about dad beating ny mom to death. But this time was different i hadn't even gotten to sleep before a strange man came into my room and robbed me of my innocence I ran through the street I had the pepper spray my mom bought me last year and a knife more like dagger connected on ny hip not that it mattered right now theres not much more a person can do if they catch me I was already rapped and to die would be a privilege I found the entrance to the path and ran I reached the fort and quickly unlocked it and shut the door locking it again vic knew to use his keys to get in when I asked him to come I called vic I started crying while waiting vic heard me crying this had happened before he sighed into the phone "I'm on my way darling don't cry " he started singing to me a song called match into water he wrote for me and sung at his bands concerts
She sits up high, surrounded by the sun
One million branches and she loves every one "Mom and dad, did you search for me? I've been up here so long I'm going crazy!" And as the sun went down we ended up on the ground I heard the train shake the windows You screamed over the sound And as we own this night I put your body to the test with mine This love was out of control 3-2-1 where did it go? Now don't be crazy Yes now of course you can stay here. Been in a touring band for going on ten years. "Big deal," she said, "I guess you're official." I only said it 'cause I know what it's like to feel burned out It gets you down, We've all been there sometimes But tonight I'll make you feel beautiful once again And as the sun went down we ended up on the ground I heard the train shake the windows You screamed over the sound (over the sound) And as we own this night I put your body to the test with mine This love was out of control 3-2-1 where did it go? If I were you I'd put that away See, you're just wasted And thinking 'bout the past again Darling, you'll be okay And she said, "If you were me, you'd do the same 'Cause I can't take anymore I'll draw the shades and close the door Everything's not alright and I would rather..." And as the sun went down we ended up on the ground I heard the train shake the windows You screamed over the sound (over the sound) And as we own this night I put your body to the test with mine This love was out of control Tell me where did it go? He stayed singing into the phone the whole time he was walking to the fort I heard him outside as he finished the song he hung up the phone and came up unlocking the door hatch type thing seeing me on the floor I loomed into his eyes and he dropped to his knees and held me as I wept and told him what had happened.
