What do you think you are doing?
You dirty old man.
Don’t hurt me if you will!
Don’t hurt me if you can.

Darling are the words you say.
The words you express.
You get your thrill,
With making my life a mess.

You say you have the key,
Because you know you have the power.
And I know you’ll take my soul
Within the hour.

You know what I am thinking,
You know how I feel.
You know my pain is there.
You know my pain is real.

What’s the matter with you,
You creep?
Leave me alone!
Let me go to sleep.

You tell me to hush,
Not to make a sound.
You slowly take my heart
And drop it on the ground.

Here’s my chance someone’s in the house.
Someone can save me from this horrid dream.
But you, you dirty old man have taken my scream.

While I lay here in a coma,
A living nightmare.
You take my innocence
And my heart you tear.

Don’t come back.
I said go away!
Then you simply tell me
That you are here to stay.

I’m not your love!
Don’t call me that,
That’s not my name.
Go away old man you give me shame.

I’m so afraid.
I want to cry,
But you, you creep
Know I can only try.

Knowing I am suffering
Makes you think you’ve won.
But I’ll get you one day.
I haven’t yet begun.

I shall be strong.
I will soon realise
That I have done no wrong.

] When I am older I will share what you have done.
And share what you have said.
I’ll make your life hell.
I’ll wish you dead.

Whether it be for real or in a dream,
I’ll look high and low
For my lost scream.
