You made up a box of pictures
You made them up for me
Whether I was worthy, willing, wanting
You drew them tenderly
And I have nothing else to give
And I had nothing left to say
From the moment moving, moaning, making
And I was nothing, given away
To mistresses woven like walls
To manhandlers who can only berate
While you were waiting, wondering, wanting
To draw me through my given fate
And draw me through till I was made
And draw me through with lines and patterns
Which no matter how I use them now
Are just a box of pictures
And I'm not a hero
And I'm not a villain
I'm just tatters
