Exploitation

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!
