Tortured - Otep

I was like 13

And it was a Sunday morning I think…

And…

I think both of my parents were still asleep…

I remember.

I was gonna play sick so I wouldn’t have to go to church that day…

And I turned over

And there he was…

Holding a pillow…

He smelled of sweat… and regret

… and he said …

«shhhhh»
