Raped, strangled, mutilated
Beaten down in a dozen ways
Thresholds crossed, lines desecrated
It goes on and on and on, and they're still defended
We hear them justify
We watch them vindicate
For every fearful finger pointed
Thousands turn it down as fabricated
The victims shamed for speaking up
Blinkered views come creeping out
No healing in this culture of silence
No healing, no easing
