untitled
Begging for crumbs of affection.
Don't even recognize this reflection.
Mirror must be lying.
Look old.
Look like dying.
Phone rings.
Sets my heart to flying.
Numbers are wrong.
There I go off crying.
Eternity passes.
Life stands still.
Everything changes in a moment
At the mercy of his will.
Snatched from me like candy from a babe.
Held hostage now
I may as well be his slave.
Dangling just out of reach,
the key to my freedom.
If I could only grow two feet.
Tears pool on the floor.
My life has stolen out the door.
Used them as pawns,
Murdered my heart.
Universe is falling apart.
Don't even recognize this reflection.
Mirror must be lying.
Look old.
Look like dying.
Phone rings.
Sets my heart to flying.
Numbers are wrong.
There I go off crying.
Eternity passes.
Life stands still.
Everything changes in a moment
At the mercy of his will.
Snatched from me like candy from a babe.
Held hostage now
I may as well be his slave.
Dangling just out of reach,
the key to my freedom.
If I could only grow two feet.
Tears pool on the floor.
My life has stolen out the door.
Used them as pawns,
Murdered my heart.
Universe is falling apart.
