Lyrics
My Right to Choose
He sent a shiver down my spine
Creating fear that I could not define,I was so scared, scared to refuse, I didn't dare make a move.
His flat had posters on the wall, it went so quiet you could hear a kneedle fall, this wasn't right, I knew it now, I could not fight.
CHORUS:
So then why should I have to testify? Oh who has this god given right to intrude, to invade my right to choose.
I was too helpless to resist, he held me down and hit me with his fist, tears in my eyes, I screamed out for helkp, no compromise.
CHORUS
He's out there running free, I'm frightened and confused, believe me now this creep is guilty, can't this be proved?
CHORUS
To step on my ground, push me aroud, to invade my right to choose.
