He took it from me and it wasn't his to take. My sense of safety, my sense of security. Now I can't sleep at night without checking all the doors and windows. Anytime I hear a noise I think, could it be him again. He took it from me and it wasn't his to take. Now I"m afraid no matter where I go, I don't feel safe in my own home. My once peaceful sleep is now tormented. He took it from me and it wasn't his to take. I worry every day, will my son be safe. will i have to worry about him. Would he really go that far. He took it from me and it wasn't his to take. NOw I toss and turn in sleepless nights, my sleep is tortured, I'm alone, it's dark, is he there. He took it from me and it wasn't his to take. The dogs bark and my skin crawls. I'm constantly looking over my shoulder, checking my drink. He took it from me and it wasn't his to take. My safety, my security, my life, my body.
I'm taking it from him. and it's mine to take. I want my security, my safety, my life, my body. I'm taking it from him and it's mine to take. if only it were that easy, to not be afraid. To feel safe in my home, in my bed, with my son. I'm taking it from him and it's mine to take. To not have to look over my shoulder, to trust, to love.
I'm taking it from him and it's mine to take. oh if only I could.
Ah to sleep again.
