I have no future in sight I only have my parents wanting me to be a doctor Instead of taking a stand, I follow along I always follow along That's who i am A quiet obedient daughter I've learned to stay quiet in that house If i don't, it'll all erupt The screaming The fighting The cheating The drinking It'll never truly end will it? So i stay quiet So i stay composed Inside these long halls And endless stairs If i can't be the perfect daughter Who am i? The daughter that gets good grades The daughter that teaches their brother The daughter that takes on the roll of parents The daughter who's supposed to be able to do anything The daughter who's scared of choices The daughter that never speaks up for herself The daughter that's pathetic The daughter that sees shadows The daughter that hears voices "Reach for the moon because even if you fail, you be among the stars," they say But what if I'm scared to dream? Scared to know I'll live that long
