"Lock Up Your Daughter's"
I prey on vulnerable girls, being they're easier to control/
As my payback to the world, for it denying me of a soul
Leaving a hole I cannot fill, so any feelings I cannot feel/
Hence I like to fill their heads up, with dreams I can't fulfil
I will conceal this with my illness, then I don't appear ill/
Until I reveal my true colours, & blame others for how I feel
Whenever I feel lonely, I like to pretend I'm someone else/
Family all disowned me, will not phone me or give me help
When I need a personality, I will just mirror someone else/
And if you ever dare challenge me, I will make your life hell
I know I'm nobody to nobody, pushed from pillow to post/
And I do a dog's body job, like some Joey supposed
Should have loved me the most, but love my brother lot more/
So when my brother got close, mother got a box in the jaw
Like my box I am sore, when I swore I'd never lose/
I tried to war a warrior, who just mocks me with abuse.
