Parallel Reflections - Memoira

They squeezed her through the mold

Be a good girl and do as you’re told

And now she feels the urge to scream

Guess perfection’s not all it’s cracked up to be

When all the words are dead

And a smile is just uncertain shield

When you faith is weak and bruised

Hope starts to slowly yield

Effort goes up in flames,

All that’s left is mere shame,

Hate of what I’ve become

Effort goes up in flames,

Lost inside in the blame,

Banned to set myself free

Countless hours of scream and shout

Wondering what it’s all about

Fighting against the conscience’s

Taunt laying low from scorning flaunt

When all the words are dead

And a smile is just uncertain shield

When you faith is weak and bruised

Hope starts to slowly yield

Effort goes up in flames,

All that’s left is mere shame,

Hate of what I’ve become

Effort goes up in flames,

Lost inside in the blame,

Banned to set myself free

Effort goes up in flames,

All that’s left is mere shame,

Hate of what I’ve become

Effort goes up in flames,

Lost inside in the blame,

Banned to set myself free
