purple-skunk

I was told not to breathe In my room I'd sit and seethe And the mirrors they lie My eyes are wrong? Is that why they cry? Another punch Another blow Just a game for freakshows My dignity My right to live Worth less to them than my virginity Eyes of steel Reality is unreal Cookie cutouts on parade They carry off my banner of shame Altered mind Robot at best I feel a fool for falling Leaving a blood trail for the rest Follow the footsteps of a dying monster Watch her death and show them all If swords can't kill me Words are daggers in ballgowns
