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.
