Coup D'Etat

You’re the stain that scars the silence Evidently echoed in everyone’s eyes The whispers articulate the evidence That results in my elegant demise. It is the shadow that tailgates the night Annihilating every anchor I have in sight The catalyst that induced instant confusion Right from the start of your epic intrusion The remains of your anarchy are engraved Unrepentant steadfast they remain So I surrender seeking shelter for my shame Allowing only my suspicions to be displayed I will watch as they crown and cloak you King Audience the occasion and applaud your victory Watch as they bow down as kiss your ring But I solemnly swear I will not repeat history
