Shelter

Turning the key
Opening the box
Pulling you out
Know you've been crying nonstop
I will shelter you
I will shelter you
I'll hold you in my arms
Before I let you go
You don't deserve
To grow in a world so cold
I will shelter you
Yeah I will shelter you
Seven years of trauma
And counting
I'm forty pounds
With hundred reminders
That I'm a piece of shit
I'm worthless
I should've never been born
Cause I'm a burden
I've seen so fucking much
It's just nasty
Why the fuck did you
Not protect me
The sex and violence
Prick after prick
The list goes on and on
And it just makes me sick
Now this man is breaking down
My door and I'm just screaming
I keep calling out for you
But you're too busy sleeping
Turning the key
Opening the box
Pulling you out
Know you've been crying nonstop
I will shelter you
I will shelter you
I'll hold you in my arms
Before I let you go
You don't deserve
To grow in a world so cold
I will shelter you
Yeah I will shelter you
I will shelter you
I will shelter you
I will shelter you
I will shelter you
Wide awake
Three in the morning
Everybody's sleeping
While I'm here broken
Thinkin about the shit
You've done to me
It's been two fucking decades
When will I breathe
I'll get over the pain
Like the pain don't matter
But these fucking wounds
Won't heal I'm feelin shattered
Still that seven year old that's
Screaming at the top of his lungs
I will shelter you
I will shelter you
I will shelter you
I will shelter you
