The Offspring – Kristy, Are You Doing OK? Lyrics 17 years ago
this song means so much to me.. i never noticed it till i saw the title.
because my name's kristy.

i was saving my first time for marriage.
but i was raped 3 years ago by someone i trusted at that time more than my own mother.
i read the lyrics before i ever heard the song, and it was my story in a song.. and the stories of a lot of other people too.

"Oh, waves of time
Seem to wash away the scenes of our crimes
For you this never ends.."
".. clouds of time
Seem to rain on innocence left behind
It never goes away."
--lots of people make mistakes, and get wronged, get over it, and move on.
but when something like rape happens.. you never get over it..
it really never ends.

"Don't waste your whole life trying
To get back what was taken away."
--easier said than done.
