He laid me down,
And said he loved me,
At first I thought I'd drown,
Then he'd hug me,

I was being smothered by his love,
I felt like a suffocating dove,
Turned white by nature,
And red by blood.
He laid me down, and said it's time.
I said, not now.
My words weren’t worth a dime.

At first, he seemed like the perfect guy.
Eventually, it was right.

All I wanted, was to escape.
To be free, from his groping hands.
Show him, that he doesn't own me.
He tried to control me with him words,
Those threats didn't end.

I thought he loved me.
He truly loved.
In the end...
