Philomela

 

Well he took his time, he took his time 

Another of his kind, of his kind

And now they all will see 

The voice he took from me

​

Philomela, Philomela

Stitch me stitch me a broken pair of lips 

He silenced me

 

He said I’ll hold your tongue I’ll hold your tongue

You know it’s just for fun It’s just for fun

And I wanna hide away

Can’t face a man who behaves this way

​

Philomela, Philomela

Fix me fix me he chewed me up and spit me out 

On the floor

 

And I can’t speak so

Write it down

Write it down

Write it down for me

Write it down cause I can’t speak

 

Philomela, Philomela

He used me he used me

Why did he have to choose me

Philomela
