just look me over
i'm another person
not part of your problem
i never really mattered
you never really cared
after all this time
i'm buried in your lies
gasping for air
i'm crushed by your deciets
searching for a beam of light
the truth finds me
and anger fills me
floods me
you never really cared
i'm just a pawn
a toy for your satisfaction
the hate that fills me is like
freedom singing its fortunes
to the beaten slaves
it's a way out of the hell you put me in
revenge is so tempting
i could just squash you
but instead i'll leave you to your
own demise
by waiting for you to get stuck in
your web of lies
