Mama
Mama
look at what you did.
Inside I'm dead,
waiting,
to be born again.
Mama
I'm no human being.
I don't know how to live.
I don't know how to love.
Blue eyes white hair black skin
Stare at me with hatred.
No joy
No love
I cry, I cut,
I lay to rest.
Inside I'm dead
Waiting waiting
to be born again.
