They tried to break me, drain me
Rape life from me, well let them try
Wash my brain 'til I'm brand new
Tell me something I don't know
I did the time, played the game
I'm out now, not the same
You tried to tell me
What to do, where to go
Who to see, what to know
Well, wash my brain 'til
It is all clean, no dirt between the seams
Tell me what is, and what isn't so
Tell me something I didn't know

Poet notes: ...[It] "captured my resilience, and the many of us that had that resilience to survive it. My hope is that someone that has lost hope & reads it will instead choose life etc.
