A/n: I also posted this in YouTube. I hope you like it! Thank you!

Anyhow and in anyway,
The tears that you supress?
It will eventually fall down.
Yes, you're afraid.

You try to be yourself,
You try to act swiftly,
But you weren't able to reach the standard.

He shouted at you for being an incompetent woman.
You were repeatedly corrected by him.
You were given a chance to correct them.
You try to correct them but it wasn't yet accurate for him.
You keep making mistakes even if you know that you didn't mean them.
You were walking blindly.
It was dark and remote on your side.
Now, it was your fault for not reaching their standard.

Now, you are more likely to make mistakes.

Fear of doing more mistakes had enveloped your being.
Imperfection is a no no.
Ignorance is sin.
No one will understand you.
You immediately ran at the battleground without holding a weapon.

You lack in training and you immediately went to war.
You want to say 'Fall back! Fall back!' when you realize that you have to retreat and rethink things out.
How can you say that now?
You cannot quit.
Bullets are firing everywhere.
You forgot that a simple paper has a condescending bomb.

You're a foolish person.
There was a snake hiding in that paper.
Why didn't you see it?
Now, you're in chains.
You didn't even know that you allowed yourself to be leashed.

You're a slave.
You have no freedom.
You would pay if you quit.
You placed a bullet on your own head.

...

A/n: Yes. I am very much depressed right now. I am bound to an institution. I want to quit but I can't. If I do, I'll be forced to pay PHP40K????!!!!
