You weren't born to be a star
You were born for me to look at you
In the dark
You weren't born to go far
You were born for me to keep you
Chain your heart
I said I was born to be brave, but I'm sweating like a coward
Hoping I'm not to here to blame, when the tears close the hour with you
And I hear you
"Baby does it hurt?
I promise it'll feel good"
"Baby does it burn
Like I said it would?"
"Not far enough"
"Didn't try hard enough"
"This is something you'll get used to"
And I'm hoping that love
Will mask over the sin
I'm hoping that my feelings
Hide the scars on my skin
Was it hard enough?
Did I go far enough?
This is something I'll get used to
Breath in and out
As he looks you up and down
With eyes as clear as ice
And he says
"I promise I still love you
This is just one thing you'll get used to"
I'm staring at that orange wall
From under your shoulder
In the dark
I'll make the noises and then smile
Walk you to your car
When it's over
Is it over?
"Baby does it hurt?
I promise that it's nothing"
"I promise you'll agree
Once you become a woman"
"Didn't go far enough"
"Didn't try hard enough"
"This is something you'll get used to"
And I'm hoping that love
Will mask all of the sin
I'm hoping that my feelings
Hide the scars on my skin
Was it hard enough?
Did I go far enough?
This is something I'll get used to
Breath in and out
As he looks you up and down
With eyes as clear as ice
And he says "Damn...
My little baby remember that I love you
This is just one thing you'll have to get used to"
Oh you hurt me
You hurt me you did
I hid it all these years and avoided like a kid
And now what am I to do
But to try and erase the memory of you?
I'm choking on you
Hoping to
Breathe again without the taste of you in
My breath
And at the end
I'll keep asking
With the next man
Does it still hurt?
They promised it would feel good
Does it still burn?
Just like they said it would
Far enough?
Hard enough?
Oh no
And did all of your love mask all of the sin?
And did all of those feelings hide the scars on your skin?
Far enough?
Was it hard enough?
I promise it will get better
Breath in and out
Let him look you up and down
With eyes as clear as ice
I promise it will go away
I promise it will be okay
If he stays
Do you still love me?
