Muted Circus - Focus Does the Girl Lyrics

Focus does the girl
Life takes work to keep
To work, eat, and sleep
In a way that seems normal

Focus does the girl
To keep it buttoned up
To keep it all unstuck
In a way that keeps normal

Inside though the slope is steep

Focus on the girl
Perfect eldest daughter
Cool and collected stopper
Of familial pain

Focus on the girl
A mom who's none the wiser
Dad praises her higher
Than he does his own son

Inside though the slope is steep
Synapses they fire weak
Crushed by expectations bleak
She draws a bath to find some peace

Focus on the girl
Focus does the girl
Focus on the girl
Focus does the girl

She draws a bath to find some peace
Through the wall I hear her weep
