Lying on the kitchen floor
Slipping on my blood as I try to stand
Crouched by the cabinet door
She’s in tears but drops the knife from her hand
In pain from the many slits
I feel the deepest gash on my right palm
I’ve survived her many fits
But this time it’s hard to remain calm
Hard, but not impossible
The authorities will be notified
My lie so eventful
The truth shall hide until after I’ve died
~Chorus~
She can’t go away
Not as long as I can stop it
I’m afraid to stray
Because I’m afraid to be alone
I’ll just say it’s someone else
…A petty thief
Bandaged by skepticism
The hand of the law passes right through her
She lost all the incisions
And all that’s been lost will never occur
As comfort fancies the guilt
She fluffs my hospital pillow today
And feels stitching from this quilt
Imagining how the next time will play
Endangered as I may be
I restrain all common logic within
I’ve chosen not to be free
As to head start the process of building
All over again
Over and all again
