[Lyric] She Took All the Medicine (Vemberwost)

[Verse 1]
The memory's still so vivid
As if it happened today
She took all the medicine
On the shelf over the sink
Just another attempt to escape

Lying barely conscious
In a puddle of saliva foam
Heavy knocking on the door
Until mother's hands were sore
Oh lord, please do not leave us alone

[Chorus 1]
How did it get this far, she never said a word
No one took notice of the things that can't be heard
The silent screams were swallowed by cacophony
And as the voices grew in presence the pain grew accordingly

[Verse 2]
Four months in a white cell
With a window view of the yard
She was staring through the glass
Watching people on the grass
In their pastel blue gowns smoking tar
She turned to to the room with
An expression of fear on her face
Struggling to arrange the thoughts
To match the turmoil in her heart
Wondering if it's already too late

[Chorus 2]
Agony still resides within the fractured soul
She promised to herself she would not let it roam
Wind of renewal blew so strong this time of year
She will be seen, she will be heard, she'll make it known that she is here
