Contessa, lil' darlin', they're gonna' love your limbs

So feeble, so flawless, you will be broken

They'll dress you, in violet

They'll touch your tender hair

Those demons the silence

You'll learn to block them

So pick a spot on the wall

Stare at it with all the strength you've got

And if the lighting's right

Seein' shapes so you won't think at all

In the dark-

Wide awake when all those men have gone

You cry for mother's god

Swear at him

Say I've had enough!

The pressure, it's risin'

To let the shadows in

The face of your father

It's in the darkness

You'll fake it, you'll fight it

You'll scrape and scrub your skin

The stain and the fire

Your fate's decided

So pick a spot on the wall

Stare at it with all the strength you've got

And if the lighting's right

Seein' shapes so you won't think at all

In the dark-

Wide awake when all those men have gone

You cry for mother's god

Swear at him

Say I've had enough!
