hello! thanks for watching ~
lyrics ~
[Verse 1]
Miss Maggie was way too young to understand
Why she got thrown into someone else's hands
Why she woke up to strange men
They tore her to pieces and she couldn't comprehend
Why she was locked up in a basement filled with men
Should've gone to school, instead she did them
[Pre-Chorus 1]
Don't touch me, I'm fragile
I'm bitter in my heart
Mama sold me for candy
And I was ruined from the start
[Chorus 1]
Why do you have to sell me to those mean old men?
They cut me up in places I don't even understand
It's normalcy to me, but how will my friends understand?
I'm five years old, sleeping with a million men
[Verse 2]
All grown up and her body has decayed
All those promiscuous games she had to play
No, she skipped the jungle, jungle gym phase
She's trying to look at things in a bright way
Sees a light peeking through the end of the hallway
No, she's tryna, tryna, tryna escape
[Pre-Chorus 2]
I'm running
Full force, dear
But it's harder when you're bones
I'm weak-kneed, but I'm flying
Out of this Hell hole
[Chorus 2]
Why do you have to sell me to those mean old men?
They cut me up in places I don't even understand
It's normalcy to me, but how will my friends understand?
I'm ten years old, running from a million men
[Bridge]
Finally the light is coming close
No turning back, run full force
Angels swoop down and grab me
And now I'm safe away from the million men who raised me
[Chorus 3]
Why do you have to sell me to those mean old men?
They cut me up in places I don't even understand
It's normalcy to me, how will my boyfriend understand?
I'm seventeen with a history of a million men
[Outro]
Men, a million men
Men, a million men
A million men, a, a million,
A million men, a million men
Men, a million men
end of lyrics ~
t~h~e~m~e:
This song is about a child going through s*x trafficking. It speaks of a young girl named Maggie who was sold into the s*x trafficking by her mother and how she was treated during that time. It also shows how hard it is for victims to get used to being around others and living normally after it's over.

    My story is way different than the one told in this song, but as a victim of csa and repetitive sexual trauma, this song will always mean the world to me.

    *me casually talking to the subtitles* (again.) "helloooo" Me: hello! "why did you click on subtitles for a lyric video? Me: I always have the subtitles on. Besides, I really wanted to see if you would "talk" with me again. "I mean you might as well. I spent a lot of time for those lol" Me: haha. And they always make my day. "fun fact of the day: your blood vessels could circle the globe" Me: That's good to know. I'll "borrow" that fun fact if you don't mind and tell it to my classmates. ;) "no like I am serious. It's kinda gross but also fascinating" Me: I have to agree. It's just so amazing. We are made of many details it's just fascinating. "I just thought u should know that so that could haunt you for the rest of your life" Me: I guess you gotta try harder next time 'cause that definitely doesn't haunt me. Hehe "wanna know one more?" Me: sure! I'd love to. "well I don't have one keep dreaming" Me: D: and I was already so excited. :( sad life... "I guess I need to ask you how's your day" Me: It's been great. I also need to ask you how your day has been. Sooo how was it? "well it's been better than I expected from you" Me: really? Funny. But you still didn't tell me about your day! "this song is ending soon" Me: sadly. Can't wait to see you again. "are you even paying attention to the song?" Me: kinda? :| not really "yeah yeah that's what I thought" Me: I'll pay attention next time. I promise : "now close the caption and start actually listen to this piece of art" Me: but I am listening! I can do multi-tasking! :D not really. "you're still here?" Me: Yes I am. "did you know this song didn't release because Melanie's group thought it was too dark even for her?" Me: I actually didn't. It's so sad. I'm crying :((( "yeah the song's ending now go" Me: fine... Bye!
