*UNLOCKING WHAT HAPPENED*
---------------
Where did you learn to,
Ignore your own feelings?
Who taught you how to,
Put yourself down?
Where did you learn to,
Be pressured and hurried?
When did you first know, how to frown?
Who taught you how to,
Be anxious and worried?
Or, not to behave like a clown?
*Who taught you, not to be heard?
Who made you, second or third?
Who told you, not to be seen?
How did you learn, to be mean?
*Who trained you, not to aspire?
Where d' you learn not, to aim higher?
Who taught you how, not to grow?
Where did you learn, to say no?
*Who taught your heart, not to care?
Where d'you first know, about shame?
Who trained your soul not too share?
Who taught your mind, how to blame?
How did you learn how to fear?
Who trained your soul not to dare?
*Who taught you, not to conceive?
Who trained you, not to believe?
When did you learn, not to beam?
Who taught your soul, not to dream?
*Who taught you how--
Not to shine, all your light?
When d' you first learn--
Not to trust your insight?
Where did you learn to
Ignore your own feelings?
Where did you learn how to spite?
Who taught you how to--
Put yourself down?
When did you first learn how to frown?
Where did you learn to--
Be pressured and hurried?
Who taught you, how to--
Be anxious and worried?
Or, not to behave like a clown?
*How did you know, how to fail?
When were you taught, not to trust?
Who locked your heart in a jail?
Then broke it.... yes, who was the first?
