Sideway Tears

Thunderous yawns and sideway tears
Grievous heart belies her truth
Crumbling walls, broken stride
Sad daughter why do you hide?

Bilious she pretends to be
Wearing her scorn easily
Mired deeply freedom sleeps
Sad daughter why do you weep?

Inside outside bleating lamb
Raggedy Ann she is worn
Tempting is it just to drown
Sad daughter why do you frown?
