Medical indifference to a child's innocence
Take a wild guess the rest is malicious
Neglect of her needs, they shout when she bleeds
They doubt when she pleads, devout she concedes
Forgot what she feels the layers conceal
A charming appeal, they're harder to peel
Facades that were built through shaming and guilt
Barrage of degradation became her narration
A pawn of her guardians upon the board in check
Fawns for an audience she feels every threat
She's crying soaking wet her scars having bled
Apart from her head her heart pumping lead
God knows she's tryin' and God knows she's dyin'
She can't keep up with all of this lyin'
Then she's flying off the rails with all that entails
The horrible f*cking stories of tgirls in wards but she
Can't handle that, too frail in fact
She lacks the tact to just roll on her back so she
Crumbles to adversity, flunks university
Smokin' and chokin' on plants that were growin' now
Toxic expectations inform her intentions
She feels stuck in the prison
Endless indecision
These toxic expectations inform her expression
She feels stuck in the prison
This patriarchy fiction
She can't breathe
She can't breathe, no she can't breathe
In and out, creeping in
Absurd choices voice their deepest sins
The pure noise of poison seeping in
Another appointment missed for illnesses
Chronic sonic weaknesses
Harmonically whisper secrets
It's overwhelming help me keep a sense
Of reality amidst these frequencies
Frequent needs, comfort please
Help my heart's all too frequent bleeds
Help me desperately sow the seeds of
Inner peace a little sweet release
From this pain that's gripping me
The dripping scars bar my liberty
Feel all the sharp darkness steeped in me
Start barging in my dreams seamlessly
Laugh with me, share some glee
Defiantly let's take a peek
Survive with me spitefully
Let's not leave just so easily
A laugh in the face of death
Every day that we take a breath
These prisons that were made of flesh
Their limits can be made to stretch
Just breathe
Breathe with me
Just breathe with me
