On the Education of Daughters

from The Haunting of Mary Shelley by Valentine Wolfe

/

lyrics

Smile sweetly
Think carefully
Don’t say that
Don’t say much of anything at all

They will try to
Cut you up
They will put you
Back together wrong
So very, very wrong

A vessel can have many uses
Decoration lends a purpose
Learn this on your first time breaking
You can be remade

Hold on
To my voice at night
Listen
To these insanities
Subversive whisperings

I can
Tell you how to find
Answers for every single time
They take away your voice

A vessel can have many uses
Decoration lends a purpose
Learn this on your first time breaking
You can be remade

Revel
In the decadence
As they wallow
In their ignorance
You will have all the knowledge
They foolishly squandered away
You won’t ever be alone again
If you find your cornerstone

A vessel can have many uses
Decoration lends a purpose
Learn this on your first time breaking
You can be remade
