Food for Worms

The girl heroes have taken their own lives
We're left with sewn lips and model lines

The place for us: we are seen and not heard
Refine your look but don't utter a word

We tear our hairs out one by one
We make our meals out of fingernails
Your brain could be of better use than food for worms

Spit out the pills, lay down the knife
Cut loose the noose, don't swing tonight

Close the oven door, shut off the gas
Throw out the stones that fill your pockets
How can I settle for your suicide note when I know you can write better than that?
We need to see that you've made a place for all the girls who want to be more than seen
