She won’t tell no lies.
She screams, she cries, she won’t tell no lies.
Tossing, turning, sleep has come and gone.
The days seem short, yet the nights oh so long.

The pressure, the force,
She really has no voice.

The countless tiresome tries,
Can’t escape these ties.

Lost in translation, words all a mess
Nothing truly ever makes sense.

The rustling, the whispers,
All drowning out.

Close your eyes once more,
The next ones at the door.
