What does that mean?
Like I'm a broken body
Who needed healing?
No
I was not broken
They broke me
With their closed doors
And closed mouths
That closed off a piece
Inside my mind
And sent me off
Haywire
I was not a bit to fix
Until they tore me all apart
And fiddled with my perfect heart
Making me
Hate them
Hurt
Heal
Then love
All to say
They'd done their job
I look back at the years with fire
My dominating desire
To tell them just what I know
And my contempt to show
For their
"Rehabilitation"
But no
I must keep composed
Always, always keep composed
Never let a blind thought show
Lest they think you're mad
Whatever the cost of
"Rehabilitation"
I don't want to go through it again
Give them what they want to see
And they'll give what I want to me.
