Analysis of You



You came into my room and stole what belonged to me,
 I was so young and just too afraid to scream.
 I remember all those times you told me not to tell,
 you said that no one would believe me anyhow.
 So now because of you i have nightmares in my sleep,
 memories of those nights that you hurt me.
