dancing to the beat of psychosis
By not an addict
trite, temperamental
let's forgive
the insecurity
beneath her smile
it's a given
we've neglected her again,
but we've her best interests in mind
she'll understand
the sacrifice we make (her take)
to keep her safe some day
she's such a precious thing,
we really love her so
really, but i wonder...
does she know?
(hold still darling, don't cry, just a few... more.... there,
all better now, see? you didn't really want those wings, did you?)
