Daughter/(The Wrong Child)/(Androgynous Mind) Lyrics

Alone, listless, breakfast table in an otherwise empty room
Young girl, violence, center of her own attention
The mother reads aloud child tries to understand it
Tries to make her proudThe shades go down it's in her head
Painted room, can't deny there's something wrongDon't call me daughter not fit to
The picture kept will remind me
Don't call me daughter not fit to
The picture kept will remind meDon't call me,
She holds the hand that holds her down
She will, rise aboveDon't call me daughter, not fit to
The picture kept will remind me
Don't call me daughter, not fit to be
The picture kept will remind me
Don't call me daughtersThe shades go down
The shades go, go, go
