Stop
Emily Arthur © 2005
Stop right there, don’t touch
Have you no shame for what you’ve broken
I’ve lost my sight so bear with me
This game we play is embarrassing
So stop right there, stay away
Disgrace me from afar
Your slurs on me call my name
How dare you think I’d stay
When you knew what I was to you
I won’t be your helpless refuge
No protection from the price you’re going to pay
Stop right there, while you’re ahead
Run while you can
Don’t be foolish, don’t be bold
You may hate me, but you know
I won’t stop for you
Wait and see, I will leave
If you follow you will be sorry
Stop right there, don’t touch
Why do you need me when you hate us
Your thoughtless lies are screaming
Your foolish pride is bleeding
Is that all I was to you?
Just a prop to use and abuse?
Have you no shame for what you’ve broken
How dare you think I’d stay
