Misogyny

Benedictum

I know who you are
 The perfect stranger
 With the face that blends in the crowd

 And I know how you feel
 Your hatred for me
 Is dark and deep and real

 I'm your backstreet filthy whore
 I'm the bitch that you can't ignore
 You wish that you could
 Snuff me out
 With your misogyny

 No longer blind, my eyes they see
 Beyond the parallel to me
 But you won't take my dignity
 With your misogyny

 You want me on my knees
 You think that women are only there to please you
 So take me if you will
 But my spirit is something you'll never kill

 I'm you mother, sister, whore
 I'm the bitch that you can't ignore
 You wish that you could snuff me out
 With your misogyny

 No longer blind, my eyes they see
 Beyond the parallel to me
 But you won't take my dignity
 With your misogyny

 You will not take my life
 You cannot make it right
