Invaded
It was so long ago
But the memory seems to last forever
I was searching for love
And I thought somehow you were the answer
I trusted you
To love me the way I wanted to be loved
You broke my soul
You took something that was so precious
You invaded me
I've chosen to speak
So I can be free
I was so insecure
All I wanted was to be desired
I cast my fears away
By smoking, drinking, man, I was so tired
I found myself
Surrounded by men who saw my brokenness
They took my clothes
They took my pride, my sense of innocence
They invaded me
I've chosen to speak
Though many may believe
This was something that I wanted
They invaded me
When I was really weak
I've chosen to speak
So I can be free
I've been so ashamed to speak my mind
But not this time
So many women have been silenced
Because they take the blame
I am no longer scared to actually say
I have been raped
I choose to testify
And say that this will not define me
You invaded me
I've chosen to speak
So I can be free
But the memory seems to last forever
I was searching for love
And I thought somehow you were the answer
I trusted you
To love me the way I wanted to be loved
You broke my soul
You took something that was so precious
You invaded me
I've chosen to speak
So I can be free
I was so insecure
All I wanted was to be desired
I cast my fears away
By smoking, drinking, man, I was so tired
I found myself
Surrounded by men who saw my brokenness
They took my clothes
They took my pride, my sense of innocence
They invaded me
I've chosen to speak
Though many may believe
This was something that I wanted
They invaded me
When I was really weak
I've chosen to speak
So I can be free
I've been so ashamed to speak my mind
But not this time
So many women have been silenced
Because they take the blame
I am no longer scared to actually say
I have been raped
I choose to testify
And say that this will not define me
You invaded me
I've chosen to speak
So I can be free
