It’s a classic age-old psychosis:
Shrouded love-hate feelings toward your mother
Toss you to & from your guilt & anger
Mommy is both safeguard & male defiler
And every woman you’ve ever known has been cut off justifiably

The kid rage that you’ve extended to me & all those “bitches”
Don’t lie, you cannot walk without it
Kills right?
‘Cause you cannot walk without us
Don’t lie
Kills right, women?
‘Cause we’ve let him come inside us!

Your fix?
Feministic devaluation
The sad part?
I never fucked you over though I should have & you know it “Ren”
What kept me hanging on still encumbers me
My trying to heal you –
Just plain stupid
First sight of blood & you’d think I’d have walked!

The kid rage that you’ve extended
To me & all those “bitches”
Don’t lie, you cannot walk without it
Kills right?
‘Cause you cannot walk without us, don’t lie!
Kills right, women?
‘Cause we’ve let him come inside us!

I am prepared for what I know you will say
Ever braced for you –
Your big, big moment
No therapy could take the edge off such an angry, embittered girl
Who now knows there’s no love retention in his domination

It hurts
Own it
It hurts
Own it!
