I don’t know why
You would do what you did when I did what you said
I made my bed
Like a good little girl, like a marionette

Tell me I’m no good, I’m too weak
I don’t know how to speak
I came to believe

Chorus:
Raw, raw
And I’m bleeding, shaking, crying, aching
Raw, raw
And I’m breaking down inside

I close my eyes
And she comes to me then scared and lonely again
A little child
Terrified when she hears the garage door she fears

She learned how to hide, how to freeze
Not to feel, not to breathe
I pray for release
I’m down on my knees ‘cause I’m

Chorus:
Raw, raw
And I’m bleeding, shaking, crying, aching
Raw, raw
And I won’t be taking anymore

Bridge:
I have survived
I grow stronger everyday
I no longer suffer all your pain

Chorus:
Raw
And I’m healing, waking, feeling, naked
Raw
And I’m tired of raging, hurting, hating
Raw, raw
And I’m bleeding, shaking, crying, aching
Raw, raw
And I won’t be taking anymore

And I can’t go back, I won’t go back to you
