A Different Point of View
Everyone blames the harlot
 For dipping them in a red pool of sin
 No one seems to give a thought
 To the mess that they've put her in
 
 Twist her face into beauty
 Twist it into a devil
 Now imagine that this rock is weak
 Imagine her as a little girl
 
 Lost down the rabbit hole
 Drowning in the riptides of the world
 The spider web that was her soul
 Slowly, painfully, plucked and unfurled
 
 Every ounce of pleasure you take
 Leaves a small tear
 Some are bigger, those are the mistakes
 The reason why she lives in fear
 
 Everyone looks down on her lot
 They could never understand
 No matter how hard she fought
 This is just where she lands
 
 Lower than the gutter
 Though she holds her head high
 Every experience cuts her
 Every night she cries
 
 She doesn't want to be this way
 She can't trust enough to improve
 She watches as her life flutters away
 And negative voices ring true
 
 The pieces left throb and stab
 She lives with this every day
 Once you enter this world, there's no going back
 So tell me, who's really to blame?
