Binding precedent



(Trigger warning- mentions of suicide)



There was a girl who died

yesterday, 


killed herself. 

I wonder if she knew,

she was following a precedent,


 a binding precedent. 

There was a girl who died 

last year, 

killed herself. 

I wonder if she knew, 

what the other girl knew. 

That, cameras will play

a mocking game, 

wearing treachery

in place of their lenses.  

Mirror, mirror on the wall, 

Is there a camera to decide my fall? 

In this game, you should gamble it all. 

You all,

the verdict starts like this, 

When you are a girl.... 

When you are a woman... 

precedents are all set over; 

binding, they remain presiding. 

Lady Law, our Lady Love,

she's a woman too. 

So, if her dress slips a little 

will eyes go astray? 

There was a girl who died 

a second ago, 

killed herself. 

I wonder if she knew. 

I wonder if 

She knew.
