So Young, Too Old

I remember the bathroom light and a body barricading the door
The ending of one's innocence, running down like tears hitting the floor

Where do we draw the line between power and lust?
Because of you I feel weak and everyone has lost my trust
I will never be the same after the violation, I was left in disarray

You prowled on me like a lion waiting to bathe itself in flesh
One decade has passed but the memory is still too fresh

Was this the moment that started it all?
The edge I stood on for so long
The moment before the jump
No catch before the fall
The forgiveness only lifted the burden for so long
And when I had it in my hands it anchored me under water, I knew it was over
Her hand, golden and aged, pulled me to shore

Lifted the weight off of my back, mended together, then it climbed back on my shoulders

I lost my grip and my mind, trying to come to terms with what happened that night
Things would be much easier if I was fucking blind
