#metoo? by Melodie Yvonne Ramey
Pretending I’m in outerspace
So I don’t have to see your face
Those leering eyes look down at me
I’ve lost all hope you’ll set me free
You drove me out too far from home
Way further than the buffalos roam
Pretending that you were my friend
Until we reached that dark dead-end
Your touch it chilled the coldest ice
You blamed me, said that I enticed
I gently said, “We must get back”
Maliciously you spit a laugh
“Ass, gas, or grass. No rides are free”
“I thought you liked my company”
Whatever just to make me guilty
How come I’m the one that feels so filthy???
Pretending I’m in outerspace
So I don’t have to see your face
Those leering eyes still look at me
My only hope you took from me
You drove me back but I’m still there
I don’t know how you just don’t care
I watch you go on ‘bout your day
Like you didn’t take my worth away
But how on earth could I have let you?
It’s my fault for smiling at you
It’s my fault for all that leading
Can you make monsters then just hate ‘em?
Pretending I’m in outerspace
So I don’t have to see your face
Those leering eyes still look at me
I want back what you took from me
Pretending I’m in outerspace
So I don’t have to see your face
Those leering eyes still look at me
I’ve lost all hope you’ll set me free
