When I look at my voice, It appears fragile, weak, and afraid. It cowers before the judgment of others I love, Smother in love, Before I sever our connection, And as I watch that voice take on an ugly expression, Saying things filled with salt and fat and grease, I remember my values, And I wonder how I ever got so far from the path I chose when my vision was far clearer.

When I look at my voice, It appears fragile, weak, and afraid. It cowers before the judgment of others I love, Smother in love, Before I sever our connection, And as I watch that voice take on an ugly expression, Saying things filled with salt and fat and grease, I remember my values, And I wonder how I ever got so far from the path I chose when my vision was far clearer.
