[hometext] => Just another day in the life of someone trying to live...here was one of my hardest...
[bodytext] => I saw you today
Smugly sitting amongst your friends A smile on your face as you preached of your morals That same smile i saw that night When you watched me struggle and fight But i had no chance You made sure of that There were plenty of you to keep me down And never once did i see you frown I saw you today Sharing your views in class About ethics and crime and hate So self righteous you were A confident air about you That same confidence i saw on your face that night As you had your friends restrain me A young woman drugged and beaten Were you strong then? I saw you today Laughing heartily and telling jokes Smacking your friend on the back While you had a couple of smokes I heard that same laugh that night As you walked away and i was left there Filthy, used, beaten, and ashamed You walked out of the room washed your hands Went back to your party I fight to be strong Day in and day out sometimes i win the daily battle Yet sometimes it is too hard I saw you today Tauntingly smirking in my direction I had to walk out Today i may have lost this battle But I promise never to give up I just couldnt be that brave this day...
