Prison Sex by Tool. It's not all casual statutory rape like half the songs in this thread and maybe a little deeper than troutman was going for with the thread topic, but I love it. I love how the title suggests it's about prison rape, which I think was just to make it more palatable to release on a mainstream label. Really it's obviously about the cycle of sexual abuse. Is it rapey? Is it incestuous and rapey? I don't know, but it's a heavy fkn hitter:
[Verse 1]
It took so long to remember just what happened
I was so young and vestal then, you know it hurt me
But I'm breathing so I guess I'm still alive
Even the signs seemed to tell me otherwise
Got my hands bound, and my head down
And my eyes closed, my throat's wide open
[Verse 2]
I do unto others what has been done to me
Do unto others what has been done to you
I'm treading water, I need to sleep a while
My lamb and martyr, you look so precious
Won't you, won't you come a bit closer
Close enough so I can smell you
[Verse 3]
I need you to feel this
I can't stand to burn too long
Release in sodomy
For one sweet moment I'm whole
[Verse 4]
I do unto you now what has been to me
I do unto you now what has been done
You're breathing so I guess you're still alive
Even the signs seem to tell me otherwise
Won't you, won't you come a bit closer
Close enough so I can smell you
[Verse 5]
I need you to feel this
I need this to make me whole
Release in sodomy
[Verse 6]
And your witness that blood and flesh can be trusted
I am your witness that blood and flesh can be trusted
Only this one holy medium brings me peace of mind
[Verse 7]
Got your hands bound, and your head down
And your eyes closed, you look so precious now
[Verse 8]
I have found some kind of temporary sanity in this
####, blood, and cum on my hands
I've come round full circle
[Verse 9]
My lamb and martyr, this will be over soon
You look so precious
You look so precious
You look so precious
You look so precious
You look so precious now
You look so precious
