Subject: Escape in the Grave

Just another sighting of you, that is all I ask
Yet this seems to be a most difficult task
You stay concealed behind a tapestry woven of lies
And your heart is permanently locked in the ice

A serpent in the dark, hidden from the light
A celebrated fraud stealing love in the night
With obstruction of justice you should be charged
For I can get no vindication for the damage to my heart

I could board a rocket and fly to outer space
But no amount of distance or time will ever erase
This colossal hurt that has left me bleeding and raw
Am I to blame or was it just the luck of the draw?

Notice the protrusion of the knife from my heart
My life is a wreck, I am completely torn apart
When the five of swords was revealed, I was not surprised
It merely reinforced the things I had already realized

Living in America, I have the right to be free
Free from this pain and the rubbish that I don’t need
An inner voice tells me I should simply walk away
Yet for some unknown reason, I continue to stay

Perhaps it is my pride or just foolish vanity
Maybe I can not admit that you got the best of me
Or maybe I still hope that you will someday change
Though year after year you have remained the same

I only know that right now you are all that I need
And the day that I die, my epitaph shall read
That on this earth, to your love I was a slave
And I can only escape your power in the grave
