There’s something in your smile
A devious spark of lies
The gaze of a hunter
Eyes locked on the prize
Watching it\'s prey suffer
Took too long to realize
My self-esteem slowly dies
With a numb sensation I lie
In bed asking myself why
I constantly try to justify
Locking my pain away
Is what leaves me weak
But also keeps me alive
While your teeth sink deep
Into my soul, I silently cry
Your voice lurks in my head
Always nearby, like a spy
Feeling your touch, I petrify
Is this my life now to keep?
Abandoned by my gut feeling
Only feel peace when asleep
A familiar shadow is sneaking
Up to my brain, it’s seeding
The thought of never leaving
No room left for dreaming
Breathing get’s harder
I need a shield, an armor
For once, be a good partner
You don’t even hand me a plaster
This is an inescapable disaster
Stuck in your romantic headlock
Forced to be your forever livestock
A puppeteers doll, hanging from a rope
Moved by manipulation
Running from the clock
Tick, tock, there goes my life
Still years away from lifting the fog
