  • Compact Disc (CD) + Digital Album

    Package is a full-color, 4-panel wallet containing a vinyl look/feel CD and a 12-page booklet with full lyrics and artwork.

    Songwriter's note to the hard-core audiophiles (truth in advertising): This is a high-quality CD-R, burned from a digital master in a professional manufacturing facility. It is NOT a replicated disk. I had to choose between replication and the vinyl look/feel I wanted for the CD. For me, the visual aesthetic was more important, given that most people are streaming these days anyway. The audio quality of the CD-R is the same as a pressed disk.

lyrics

I am a mother and a daughter, a lover and a friend
The world that I once knew is gone, impossible to comprehend
Once I had a gentle man and he loved me to the moon
They call me by another name but still, my name is June.

Now I keep my head down, I don't look them in the eye
Every dress I own is red and the driver is a spy
Once I had a mother, a fighter through and through
They call me by another name, but the name she gave to me is June.
It's June. And all I have left is my name.

How can you do this? How can you let this be?
How can you do this? You're a woman just like me.
My name is June. And all I have left is my name.

You asked me if I'm happy. I told you what they made me say.
The truth is: Death is preferable to what I'm living through today
Once I had a little girl that I carried in my womb
They call me by another name, but now you know my name is June.
It's June. And all I have left is my name.

How can you do this? How can you let this be?
I'm a woman, I am human, I'm not a commodity.
How can you do this? How can you let this be?
How can you do this? You're a woman just like me...

...a mother and a daughter, a lover and a friend
The world I knew is upside down, impossible to comprehend
My daughter is out there somewhere and I pray to see her soon
She's the only reason I stay alive.

How can you do this? How can you let this be?
I am a woman I am not a commodity
How can you do this? How can you let this be?
How can you do this? You're a woman just like me

My name is June. And all I have left is my name.
