Lying still on a hospital bed
Bruises covering her body and head
She tries to understand what is worse?
Rape or rage, of the people who curse?
"She must have asked for it
Look at her clothes, how tight they fit
So many guys, she calls them friends
She shoud have known, this is how it ends"
Writhing in pain, humiliation and fury
She doesn’t know who's more evil? the criminals or the jury?
How easy it is, oh how convenient it can be
To blame the victim and set the monsters free!
She didn’t ask for it, no she didn't
It is fools who take her mere existence as a hint
If her clothes offend you, you offend humanity
For every gentleman will agree, clothes don't define chastity
You blame her for having friends, why o why?
Did you question the friends, whose friendship was a lie?
"She was drinking, how could she?
It isn't good for a girl, to be so free
What else did she expect, hanging out this time of the night?
Doesn't she know, wrong from right?"
A frightening fire eats up her soul
Punching her chest, leaving her heart with a hole
What was more painful? The abuse or the blame?
Different crimes, but they hurt just the same!
How does alcohol make her more available?
What kind of animals pounce on a human vulnerable?
If you really do want to make late nights safer
Teach them the rules, and please spare her
Enough! Enough with putting the victim to shame
Enough with the injustice, with all the blame game!
Point a finger, if you must
Not on her, but on them and their lust
Her clothes, her behavior, her freedom and her choice
Are basic rights, not reasons to curb her voice
No reason ever, justifies a crime so low
Blame the victim no more, set her free, let her go!
