You made me who I am I read the books, held mama's hand You told me I wasn't worthy But God always has a plan
They shaped me and transformed me Into someone they'd liked to see A quiet modest young lady Well, that's who I was meant to be
I'm pure, I'm pure, I'm pure as a lamb I'm heaven's little virgin, too holy for man I'm glass, I'm fire, I don't know hate And that's how I'll get to the pearly gate
I'm pure, I'm pure, I'm pure as a lamb I pray every morning and as much as I can A whispered blessing is all I can say Too keep the demons like you away
Now that I am beautiful I wear what you want, you saved my soul I have two ears for listening And I'll keep doing what I'm told
And I hope you'll love me too But I don't seem to be enough for you I'm killing myself slowly What else do you want me to do?
I'm pure, I'm pure, I'm pure as a lamb I'm heaven's little virgin, too holy for man I'm glass, I'm fire, I don't know hate And that's how I'll get to the pearly gate
I'm pure, I'm pure, I'm pure as a lamb I pray every morning and as much as I can A whispered blessing is all I can say Too keep the demons like you away
Oh, oh, oh
You watered your garden I grew But you destroyed me, you grabbed me by the roots You plucked my petals just like the devil would do And if I'm going to hell, I hope that you go too
I'm pure, I'm pure, I'm pure as a lamb I'm heaven's little virgin, too holy for man I'm glass, I'm fire, I don't know hate And that's how I'll get to the pearly gate
Now I feel dirty, look what you did I wasn't an object, I was a kid And I'm scarred and mangled, I am used And all of this because of you
