Ghostly fingers hold me down in my sleep
A hand around my mouth stops the screams
I cannot ever escape the pain in my legs as I remember the weight of you
I was nothing but a girl trapped inside the body of a woman
Why did it need so many of you to do that to me
Marks on my neck always seem to be there in my reflection
It has been years but in my mind it always here and now
I can taste the blood in my mouth from where your teeth bit my flesh
Hear the sound of fabric ripping as I plead and beg
Always there in my mind the ifs and whys from that night
The sounds of laughter before silence and darkness
Weighted down by memories that haunt me
You and your friends tore me apart inside and out
Destroyed me and threw me away like the rubbish
I feel like I am worthless despite being told otherwise
That is down to you
You have destroyed me and I hate who I am because of it
