A sad girl in the mirror
_____
Looks at me carefully and doesn't want to talk
_____
There's a gray monster in the kitchen
_____
That breaks everything, that won't stop yelling
_____
I've a hand on my neck that with subtlety
_____
A blindfold covers my eyes
_____
I can smell the fear and it's coming closer
_____
I've a knot in my cords
_____
That dirties my voice when I sing
_____
I've a guilt that tightens
_____
It rests on my shoulders and it's hard to walk
_____
But I drew a purple door on the wall
And on entering I freed myself
_____
Like a ship's sail that unfurls
_____
I woke in a green meadow far from here
I ran, I screamed, I laughed
_____
I know what I don't want, now I'm safe
_____
A tree that doesn't grow because it's not its place
_____
A punishment that is imposed on me
_____
A verse that crosses me out and erases me
_____
I've my whole body chained
_____
Cracked hands, a thousand wrinkles on my skin
_____
The ghosts speak at my nape
_____
The wound reopens and it bleeds
_____
There's a goldfinch in my throat
_____
I've the need to turn the key
_____
So I drew a purple door on the wall
And on entering I freed myself
_____
Like a ship's sail that unfurls
_____
I woke in a green meadow far from here
I ran, I screamed, I laughed
_____
I know what I don't want, now I'm safe
_____
So I drew a purple door on the wall
_____
And on entering I freed myself
_____
Like a ship's sail that unfurls
_____
I appeared in a green meadow far from here
I ran, I screamed, I laughed
_____
I know what I don't want, now I'm safe
