In the stillness of the night,
A woman's screams fill the air
As her dignity is torn apart
And her soul is left bare.
Her body was not hers to take
But still, he did as he pleased
And now she's left to pick up the pieces
Of a shattered life, piece by piece.
Her voice trembles as she speaks
Of the violence that was done
And though the world may try to silence her
She won't stop until justice is won.
For justice is not just a word
It's the light that breaks through the dark
It's the hope that tomorrow will be different
And that the victim can finally embark
On a journey towards healing and peace
Without fear of being judged or blamed
And though the road may be long and hard
Justice will make sure her abuser is tamed.
For every woman who's been wronged
For every life that's been shattered and scarred
We must raise our voices and demand
That justice be served, no matter how hard.
So let us stand with the victim
And fight for her right to be heard
For justice will prevail in the end
And her voice will finally be heard.

Far too many rapists get away with it. But you don't need me to tell you this...
