standing inside
screaming so loud
that i bled my lungs out
and no one even
heard me shout
everybody never dared speak
so yelling was too
tactless to think
i didn't dare ask
for water
or a flask
cause i knew
how a lady should act
and what a lady should do
but that lady isn't me
and that lady isn't you-
oh darling
been dead such a long long time
and you're gathering dust
and smelling of rhymes
all this time,
did you ever think to speak your mind-speak your...-
ah, those sweet-n-low laughs
caught in my throat
clumping and caked
i think i'm gonna choke
i can't live this fairy tale you've beckoned me to
like a whore from beneath your trap door
'cause you're trapped too
oh, but darling don't they like you?
or the thing they assume is you....-
oh darling
been dead such a long long time
and you're gathering dust
and smelling of rhymes
all this time,
did you ever think to speak your mind
inside of your head, is there still time
to speak your mind?-
in the end,
it won't matter
you'll be swept away
in some laughter
they'll remember how you stayed inside
right inside those lines
and won't know all the heartaches
birth pains
and your sadistic lies...
but hidden in all those pages
who will they finally find?-
oh darling
been dead such a long long time
and you're gathering dust
and smelling of rhymes
all this time,
you've been plotting the day
they'll be able to read your mind.
