Sympathy for Lilith

It's not cool to be afraid of the dark
Follow the rules with disdain in your heart

Whoever you think you are
Tame yourself and be good

It's not safe to be kind when they fetishize your skin
Good luck to your pride
Your hide's depreciating

Whoever you think you are
Contain yourself and be good

Whoever you think are
Behave yourself and be good

Angry is not a good colour on me
Frankly is a luxury for other bodies to be

Whoever you think you are
Shame yourself and be good

Second place is where the gracious go
It's not fair, not ok
But you can't say no

Whoever you think you are
Blame yourself and be good

Whoever you think you are
Hate yourself
Whatever it takes to be good

I don't know, I don't know, I don't know, I don't know why
Secrets are so loud
I don't know, I don't know, I don't know, I don't know if
They can hear us so far down
I don't know why must I lie?
Why don't I count?
I don't know, I don't know, I don't know, I don't know how to be good

Take me home safely when I wander
Like father like
My brain is made in the image of my father
Like daughter like
Take me home safely when I falter
To the water
My body's not made for slaughter on your alter
No longer will I
No longer will I
No longer

Behold the grand diplomat bled out of grace
She became the dark to stop being afraid

Whoever you think you are
No longer will I
Whoever you think I am
No longer will I be
Whoever you think I am
No longer will I be good
No longer will I be good
Good, oh no, oh no
No longer will I be good
Oh no, oh no
No longer will I be good
