But people perceive me to be, form their remarks I can tell,...

Abused and forgotten
What exactly do me and you have in common?
Too often
Stampeding my way through problems

No regard or dangerous and given due caution
If no choice is ever made than...

Who said she'd have to be like this or this is the way she should act.
Who put it in my head that my role model would have...

Tearing at my flesh you hesitate none, at the taste of my blood you dig deeper into 
my skin, the bitterness...

Your words are still so vivid,
Constantly ringing in my mind.
It’s so clear and innocent and never twisted,
They remain as clear as you spoke them that first time.
How you spoke it had such flavour,
I was left...

I’m not sure what they are all expecting
When they turn to look at me
I’m not the one wanting to be put on a pedestal
I can’t light the moon for all to see

Put on a pedestal of shame because of belief, 
immeasurable weight drags you down full of grief, 
Immense pain engulfing your heart, mind and soul, 
draining ‘til empty, rather than full,
When you want to speak...

and if I’m not impeccable
I guess I’m just their big letdown.

Introducing: Nate & Linda

The smile on my lips
is forced and coerced
I pretend to pay attention
give the best possible advice
everyone praises me

Disputed


Remain among the living
Feed glory to the wispy trails
Of fresh salted tears
Though not to exaltation
