Ladies and Gentlemen

Ladies and gentlemen feast your eyes on this grotesque creature,
Ladies and gentlemen,
Ladies and gentlemen lend me your ears!
Hear how the creature shrieks!

Her eyes are like glaciers,
Don’t stare to long or you might be trapped within her world.
Ladies and gentlemen feast your eyes, lend your ears, taste her sorrows.
She cries out in pain, agony, and defeat!

Ladies and gentlemen what has she become?
Is she a monster?
Or are you?
Ladies and gentlemen do you take this creature as your amusement?

Has this girl done anything wrong?
Or are you just not pleased with her choices she made for herself?
Is she wrong for her desires?
Or is she wrong for not fulfilling your desires?

Isn’t this what you wanted ladies and gentlemen?
She’s pretty and smart,
Witty and gay,
The perfect daughter?

Ladies and gentlemen,
Ladies and gents,
She can do no right,
In your wicked eyes she will never have worth.

She tried ladies and gentlemen,
Oh how she tried.
But oh how they told her she failed.
Because she didn’t do as they wanted.

The grotesque girl followed her own path,
Desired her own dreams.
Damn that girl for betraying you ladies and gentlemen.
Or are you the ones that need be damned?

Ladies and gentlemen,
Feast your eyes on your reflection and see the monster that lives within.
Look as long as you will,
No harm will come to you from staring into your soul.

Ladies and gentlemen behold the monster that is you.
