Tucked in the woods
|
Near North Chicago
|
Early November
|
Commences our saga
|
Two loved in silence
|
For fear of corruption
|
Then fate chimed in
|
With an evil grin and a mighty interruption
|
|
She awoke in a panic
|
The TV in static
|
She heard a voice
|
In the attic
|
|
Crouched behind her door
|
With a Swiss Army knife
|
She cried in silence
|
Fearing for her life
|
|
Protecting herself
|
She stabbed the intruder
|
The lights turned on
|
Her knife impaled her suitor
|
|
She'd committed a murder
|
While he laid there bleeding
|
She stared, clearly scared
|
Checked her boyfriend's heart for beating
|
|
It's not right
|
The lights get dim
|
And all she thinks of is him
|
|
She cried through the morning
|
As she read the paper
|
Her father told police
|
The boy broke in to rape her
|
|
She ran to the bathroom
|
Enraged and pissed
|
Grabbed a razor
|
And tic-tac-toed her wrist
|
|
She'd committed a murder
|
And while she laid there bleeding
|
She stared, clearly scared
|
Checked her final pulse for beating
|
|
It's not right
|
The lights get dim
|
And all she thinks of is him
|
