Pure As A Lamb

You made me who I am

I read the books, held mama's hand

You told me I wasn't worthy

But God always has a plan

They shaped and transformed me

Into someone they'd liked to see

A quiet modest young lady

Well, that's who I was meant to be

I'm pure, I'm pure, I'm pure as a lamb

I'm heaven's little virgin, too holy for man

I'm glass, I'm fire, I don't know hate

And that's how I'll get to the pearly gate

I'm pure, I'm pure, pure as a lamb

I pray every morning and as much as I can

A whispered blessing is all I can say

To keep the demons like you away

Now that I am beautiful

I wear what you want, you saved my soul

I have two ears for listening

And I'll keep doing what I'm told

And I hope you'll love me too

But I don't seem to be enough for you

I'm killing myself slowly

What else do you want me to do?

I'm pure, I'm pure, I'm pure as a lamb

I'm heaven's little virgin, too holy for man

I'm glass, I'm fire, I don't know hate

And that's how I'll get to the pearly gate

I'm pure, I'm pure, pure as a lamb

I pray every morning and as much as I can

A whispered blessing is all I can say

To keep the demons like you away

Oh, oh, oh

You watered your garden and I grew

But you destroyed me, you grabbed me by the roots

You plucked my petals just like the devil would do

And if I'm going to hell, I hope that you go too

I'm pure, I'm pure, I'm pure as a lamb

I'm heaven's little virgin, too holy for man

I'm glass, I'm fire, I don't know hate

And that's how I'll get to the pearly gate

Now I feel dirty, look what you did

I wasn't an object, I was a kid

And I'm scarred and mangled, I am used

And all of this because of you
