What's the reason?
His Side Her Side
She('s) He('s)
lying lying
was all over me was all over me
wanted it forced me
never said stop never let me speak
was enjoying it held me down
We/They We/They
were all high were all high
were having fun having fun at first
I I
didn't do anything am telling the truth wouldn't do anything she didn't want was unconscious
don't know why she would lie was crying hysterically
don't remember that will never forget
am innocent am a victim
