silent daughter lyrics
by fallingwithscissors
I want to be reborn, a dove from the eagles ashes
Tear my skin off at the seams of my scars
Cleanse this body of mine
I'm sick from the words on my tongue
Deep and fevered, I'm sorry
I am not the sun, I'm a silent daughter
Suffering the breaths of man
And longing for the grace of women
Under my skin, I'm crying
Breaths of uncertainty felt deep in my bones
I'm afraid
Idle, staring at the walls
I'm stagnant, I'm not sure who I am
If not the man I was raised to be
It's not me, it's not me
It's not me, it's not me
