My life is a shell
Of what I thought it would be

And given a hug
And if I question that love
Or if I do not comply

I have been told I'm a bitch
And even a crazy physchotic
So now I'll just sit in a trance
That's beyond hypnotic
I must not think
Or question or live
I'm just a warm lump of flesh
With nothing to give

like just before an earthquake,
a dog howled and a flock of seagulls
flew from above
She wanders, lost and reeling
In a place she once called home
She wonders why she's feeling
So unloved, so alone
She has a loving
