My sister and my mom make fun

fun of me

For dressing

Dressing like an old lady

I laugh along with them

As my eyes become glossier and dim

I dress like an old old lady

my old soul is aching aching

Will someone help me

please

I dress like an old old lady

My sister and mom make fun of me

For dressing the only way I can hide my true being

Will someone take off this warm and cozy 

cardigan

from my sweaty back

As the august waves of summer burden my lies and vile ticks

Will someone roll down my black turtleneck

As I stop and lie to them

telling them its the new new

york city fashion

I dress like an old old lady

My old soul is slowly dying

I am no longer laughing 

I dress like an old old 

old old

l a d y

My my cuts are bleeding

Bleeding through my

new new new york fashion

My warm and cozy cardigan

My hair is now undone

it was once a repressed tied up bun

But now my curls are flowing out

Just like I am sobbing 

as my old soul aches

and as my fashion withers away

I feel naked when my true emotions awake

I dress like an old old lady

My mom and sister make fun fun of me

dress

like

an 

old

lady
