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

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.

I love how the subtitles said” why did u click on subtitles on a lyrics video?”

[davestrider]

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.

[Therianxious]

I like how the character shes singing about gets older throughout the song and the person who should understand changes.

[Thescooped]

huge respect for those who relate to this song

[Maddielmaoo]

I played this song infront of my mom, asked me to play it again. Thought it was a little odd that she liked this song so much, later she had told me when she was young her older sister was payed by 2 men to let them r*pe my mother.

[sophieferrie]

This song never fails to bring me to tears.

[graceiscool]

this song reminds me of the case "44 days of hell", especially the first verse

[kay_]

This is the first time I've heard this song it made me cry

[hope.the.singer.]

The fact that I can relate to this song 😢

[cLYRICh]

OMG i love the subtitles they made my day

[masonlimberhand]

1:23 "five years old and im sleeping with a million men"

[JaylynnPickford]

This song is so sad but some people go through it and I have respect for those people

[Linabeats]

So sorry for everyone that ever feel this:( im so sorry for you guys...

[tterkidV]

This song is kept so close to my heart as a csa survivor. Whenever I remember it, it feels like it's happening again for the millionth time.

[SkibidimelanieOFFICIAL]

Mel didn’t release this song because she said it was too deep

[emmad.]

This makes me think of a few people sadly 😔 Prayers to them. Good song though. It's a little bit country in style but her voice is also kind of jazzy and it has a lot of soul ❤

[Lo_or_Lola]

Is it weird to love a song that makes you cry?

[Nightmarecatxgamer]

I fell in love with the song, the first time I heard it and i almost cried :')
I LOVE MELANIE MARTINEZ❤❤❤❤

Miss Maggie was way too young to understand

They tore her to pieces and she couldn't comprehend
Why she was locked up in a basement filled with men
Should've done the school, instead she did them
Don't touch me, I'm fragile
I'm bitter in my heart
Mama sold me for a candy

Why do you have to sell me to those mean old men?
They cut me up in places I don't even understand

I'm five years old, sleeping with a million men
All grown up and her body has decayed
All those promiscuous games she had to play
Oh, 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
Oh, she's tryin', tryin', tryin' escape
I'm running full force, dear
But it's harder when you're bones
I'm weakened, but I'm flying
Out of this hell hole
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
A million men
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
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
Men, a million men
Million men, a million men
A million, a million men
A million men, a million men
A million, a million men
A million men
