They say that love is grand
They say that love is grand
Too bad it's all a lie,
I loved you with my all
And yet you walked all over me.
You took me for granted
I was just a doll,
Someone to take your frustration out on.
You said your were sorry
It would never happen again,
Yet here I am full of pain.
I stand in front of my mirror
Shattered and bloody from were I put my fist,
Shattered and bloody, just like me.
I look into the broken glass
I see a broken soul,
Collapsing from the shattered center.
I glare in hate at the reflection
Knowing the beaten shown is me,
My weakness making me easy prey.
I wait for you to come home
To beat me like always,
To tear my soul apart.
But this time I am ready
My knife by my side,
I wait by the door ready to run.
As you walk in I see your anger
I feel uncertain for a moment
But as you slap me in the face,
I know what I must do.
As you come closer to choke me
I stab you in the chest
I stand for a second mesmerized by the blood.
A moment later I run out the door,
Fleeing for my life.
Even as it slowly ends,
When I can go no further I look behind me
I see the splattered blood trail,
I see you in the distance catching up.
A smile from on my bloody lips
Just before you reach me,
I smile at you in victory.
I told you I would win
And now I have,
And as I fall dead
I know that I am free.
