No Shame - Po' Girl

[00:00.000] 作曲 : Allison Russell
[00:30.230]When I was a little child,
[00:34.220]I'd escape into my head
[00:38.260]And into the heads of authors
[00:42.110]Through the magic words I read
[00:45.930]I'd be many different people,
[00:49.600]Each one braver than myself
[00:53.970]Then I wouldn't feel his weight
[00:57.380]And I wouldn't hear them yell
[01:01.340]When they asked me at the shelter,
[01:05.030]If my father touched me there
[01:09.350]I dreamt with my eyes open,
[01:13.000]Mute I shook my hair
[01:16.770]The truth was just too painful
[01:20.520]And I did not trust their care
[01:24.340]Only years and cities later
[01:28.350]Could I lay the facts out bare
[01:32.340]aoh..aho..aho..ye..ha..
[01:47.550]He took from me ten years of childhood,
[01:51.410]Spent three years in jail at most
[01:55.170]How can a country's code of justice
[01:59.070]Be such a world away from just?
[02:03.000]Mother says she still loves him,
[02:06.780]Tells me that I'm doing fine,
[02:10.700]That he needs her more than I do,
[02:14.590]So I really should not mind
[02:48.900]Now I'm supposed to be all grown up,
[02:53.320]I escape into these songs
[02:57.220]I still hide inside those books
[03:00.950]When I'm really feeling down
[03:04.830]Shame like a stalker haunts me
[03:08.650]He may never go away
[03:12.660]But I won't be sad,
[03:15.420]I won't let him steal my joy
[03:20.330]When he tells me I am worthless,
[03:24.330]I sing out anyway
[03:28.010]cause I won't be sad or silent
[03:31.890]I won't let him steal my joy
[03:36.040]He tells me I am worthless,
[03:39.750]But I sing out anyway
[03:43.640]Cause I won't be sad
[03:46.350]I won't let him steal my joy
[03:51.210]I won't be sad I won't be silent
[03:55.210]I won't let him steal my joy
