Tell Me What I Am



Abuse me, you use me,
you take me, remake me

Your innocent contortion of my supple mind
set off a chain reaction that I can't get from behind
you sweetly tell me that it's all for my own good
maybe I best shut up and do the things you say I should

your psycho babble's taking me
to places in my mind where no one ought to ever be
my individuality
is shrinking under this onslaught you perpetrate on me

you're not smart enough
you're not strong enough
you're not scared enough
life's not long enough

you can't see enough
how i'll be grown up
take my tiny hand
tell me what I am

you sell me on the lack of power I control
you minimize the size and image of my very soul
in dreams I realize the truth of what you say
but ignorance returns to cloud me in the light of day

how does your conscience let you sleep
breaking the sacred promise that you vowed you'ld always keep
turning me into what you are
I can't believe that god would ever let it get this far
