you guys ready...
alone...listless...breakfast table in an otherwise empty room
young girl...violence...center of her own attention

mother reads aloud, child tries to understand it
tries to make her proud
the shades go down, it's in her head

painted room...can't deny there's something wrong...
don't call me daughter, not fit to
the picture kept will remind me

don't call me daughter, not fit to
the picture kept will remind me
don't call me...

she holds the hand that holds her down
she will...rise above...
don't call me daughter, not fit to

the picture kept will remind me
don't call me daughter, not fit to be
the picture kept will remind me

don't call me...
don't call me daughter, not fit to
the picture kept will remind me

don't call me daughter, not fit to be
the picture kept will remind me
don't call me...

the shades go down
the shades go down
the shades go, go, go...
