Don't judge me if I get too high tonight My journey isn't yours, it's only mine
The damage has been done, so this I pray God, give me the strength to get myself past yesterday
Her mom and daddy trusted That neighbor she grew up with
They were working days and nights, so it took her home from school sometimes
One day when she came home, it looked like she saw a ghost
She snuck up to her room to cry, with a lifelong scar to hide
Young enough for princess posters
Suddenly she's lifetimes old
He stole the innocence from her Before she knew the meaning of the word
Hours in the shower stink Still never felt clean
As she curls into a ball Some things you can't wash off
Don't judge me if I get too high tonight My journey isn't yours, it's only mine
The damage has been done, so this I pray God, give me the strength to get myself past yesterday
The damage has been done, so this I pray God, give me the strength to get myself past yesterday
A few paths in life she could take
But not one of them I could blame
Finding every way to numb
Finding ways to overcome
I pray that God will right that wrong
That she'll find a way to care
Cause you ain't the hell that you've been through
You're more than what's been done to you
Don't judge me if I get too high tonight
My journey is in your face, only mine
The damage has been done, so this I pray
God, give me the strength to get myself back yesterday
In those cold eyes you'll find
That you're broken and scared
There's no one by your side
Still all your angels are there
At your lowest of lows
When life's been cruel and unfair
I just hope that you know
All your angels are there
Don't judge me if I get too high tonight
