Internet Famous
I am a movie star
And I’m perfect for the job
I do what I’m told and I won’t tell a soul I promise
It doesn’t hurt that bad anymore
I am a movie star
More like a black hole of guilt and shame
To him it was a game he said we got to play
I’m a special little girl who gets to do big girl things
I am a world traveler
On a dark web server where hundreds of thousands of perverts
Watch him take off my ballet skirt and do want he wants
I am a world traveler
I will never truly know everywhere that I’ve been
Even standing here now I wonder if you have seen me then
And did you like it?
They say “you were just a kid it can’t be your fault,
don’t blame yourself he’s a sick bastard that’s all.”
No.
I would rather feel guilty than powerless
I used my barbie’s dress to wipe up the blood
I told you George this isn’t fun anymore
It never was
But I’m a movie star
And I’m perfect for the job
I am a special girl who doesn’t know right from wrong
I have traveled the world
At just six years old
I’ve been told that they think they aren’t hurting a soul
They didn’t touch me or rape me
Like I should be grateful for that
They just watched me and wondered if I enjoyed it a tad
I want you to know that it hurts just as bad
I want you to know you took all that I had
And to you George, I will never forgive what you did it’s not fair
I was too young to understand why you hurt me down there
But I am a grown women now and I just want to say
You made me the person who I am no longer today
You cannot hurt me anymore
And neither can they
