Analysis of She Has Gone Astray
Drugs are your vice.
It hurt your being mom.
Why you put yourself in this position I do not know.
You've just hurt your daughter in the process.
I may not be around,
but I still feel dismay.
You left me in the darkness mom.
And it seems like you haven't even noticed,
that even your own daughter has walked away.
