When I was small
So small that I could be stepped on
I was given a pill of white and green

The person who gave me the pill of white and green
Was a lady with a nice coat and a celebrated title
She was kind and had a voice that calmed the insane

She said to take it to feel better
She said to take it to be happy
She said to take it once a day

And since she was a lady with a nice coat and a celebrated title
I did what she said
Because a lady with a nice coat and celebrated title was supposed to be trustworthy

I...

But why didn’t you love me?

Was I too loud?
Or not loud enough?

Was I too bold?
Or too shy?

Please tell me
I beg of you

For I, a simple girl
Can nor bear the thought

That you shall not be mine.
