"Teach her No"

Tie it tight, taught her someone,

Don't know when.

Don't let it loose!

Don't let it fly.

But it hurts, it hurts from it's roots.

No matter what, you ought to tie.

 

Tie up! Tie up her spirits!

Tie up her soul, tie up till it hurts.

Till it mars her Self.

Don't let her free,

Taught her someone.

Be it hair or self

Don't! Don't! Don't!

 

Teaches Her from birth

What "Don't" means

But what about a "No"?

Why don't we stop feeding her "Don't"

And start heeding Her,

to Her No, to Her Yes, to Her Self...
