I Keep Trying

I try to convince her to save herself she has been indoctrinated it is too late; her essence is long-buried I beg her to remember her former self she cannot go there perhaps it is too painful my efforts are futile I keep trying which is insanity

I think I know her. You know, you just keep trying. I know it's insane, but there are some people really dear to us that we simply must not give up on. What you call "indoctrinated," I call brain-washed! So, I always have hope that the brain can get dirty again. You know what I mean?
