a naive admission
he took her so close
whispered in her ears
the things a good girl wants to hear
he had her, he had her, he had her
he slipped off her clothes
a contradiction
the words so nice
by the time she realized
his tongue turned into a knife
he had her, he had her, he had her
he took her life
dead inside
no sense of pride
a shameful stride
black beauty bride
total submission
the eyes they stare
no bruises or a mark
words made fists into the dark
he killed her, he killed her, he killed her
she's not there
forgotten dreams
inner screams
eyes don't gleam
black beauty queen
