Web of Misery
Caught in your web of deceit once again
No wiser than before
My heart knows
Your betrayal
Yet, another lie you utter
Like cascading dominos
Falling over one by one
Leaving scars
That never heal
Shattering the core
Of what we have together
Though we drift further apart each day
You choose to wallow in your
Never ending journey for vengeance
Playing God
In your twisted brand of justice
Your sins locked away
While I am chained at the town square
For all to see
Though we suffocate in this
Blackened abyss of misery
You choose to remain
Because that's all you know
