What's it been over a decade?
  It still smarts like it was four minutes ago
  We only influenced each other totally
  We only bruised each other even more so
    What are you my blood? You touch me like you are my blood
  What are you my dad? You affect me like you are my dad
    How long can a girl be shackled to you
  How long before my dignity is reclaimed
  How long can a girl stay haunted by you
  Soon I'll grow up and I won't even flinch at your name
  Soon I'll grow up and I won't even flinch at your name
    Where've you been? I heard you moved to my city
  My brother saw you somewhere downtown
  I'd be paralyzed if I ran into you
  My tongue would seize up if we were to meet again
    What are you my god? You touch me like you are my god
  What are you my twin? You affect me like you are my twin
    How long can a girl be tortured by you?
  How long before my dignity is reclaimed
  And how long can a girl be haunted by you
  Soon I'll grow up and I won't even flinch at your name
  Soon I'll grow up and I won't even flinch at your name
    So here I am one room away from where I know you're standing
  A well-intentioned man told me you just walked in
  This man knows not of how this information has affected me
  But he knows the colour of the car I just drove away in
    What are you my kin? You touch me like you are my kin
  What are you my air? You affect me like you are my air
