At 65,
It was in the park where I walked
They said don't go alone, it won't happen
At 38,
It was in a work meeting with my boss
They said don't be independent, it won't happen
At 26,
It was on the street I passed everyday
They said don't wear short skirts, it won't happen
At 17,
It was at a camp with my friends
They said don't hangout with boys, it won't happen
At 12,
It was in my school yard where I played
They said don't leave your house, it won't happen
At 5,
It was in the living room while I watched cartoons
They said don't step out of your room, it won't happen
At 1,
It was in my cradle where I slept
They said don't be born, it won't happen.
