She is crying at the kitchen table

I can't stand to think about

The way I let those men touch me

I can't stand to think about

The way they touched me

I can't even see their faces anymore

I can't stand thinking about

The way I let them see me

I cannot stop thinking

I should have been waiting the whole time

If I had known you were coming into my life

I would have been waiting for you the whole time

You've gotta look it in the eyes and say that I don't believe

You've gotta hold it underwater so you'll see where it bleeds

You've gotta stare into the mirror until you name this disease

You've gotta know

You've gotta write down all your symptoms even though it's obscene

You've gotta stay there underwater 'till you get yourself clean

You've gotta keep on going 'till you feel finally free

You've gotta know

You've gotta look it in the eyes and say that I don't believe

You've gotta look up at the water 'till you can't hardly see

You've gotta keep on walking, you'll forget about me

You've gotta know
