Barbie’s Tears Cascade



Barbie’s Tears Cascade

Smiling child under the light, in the gloom
None can see the future that’ll be her doom
Dolls her desire but they want to teach her how to make fire
Her teacher grins with the lust of a liar

Train her brain to hate and disdain
Life’s always filled with cold rain
Sacrifice is the creed and to be for you is to worship greed
Death is eternity but awaits you is blessed certainty

Family praises for innocence and diligence
She’ll never feel love’s kiss but that’s a human weakness
Prisoner of religion or an ideology where humanness is a sin
No respect for life, for altruism’s rife

She keeps her feelings hidden; she’s seen them thrown from the rooftops
She knows she’s going to die because they’ve cast her die
Her human light makes her cry
Evil has made the reality of her world a monstrous lie
