it's all just satin and lace
silk stockings hiding the truth
pain behind those painted eyes
shines through on the brim of a tear
tattooed wrists shed blood of hate
for history that can't be changed
shiny red lips stay sealed behind lies
leather and handcuffs
whips and chains can all change
everything about the night
long lashes bat away the tear drops
no one will ever notice
no one will ever care
hiding amongst them she aches
a beating heart lies
for she is not alive at all
blood pumps through her paleness
dead everywhere but where it counts
it's all just satin and lace
bracelets of torture
silver rings of burning pain
memories that remain with her
forever
branded onto her brain
etched into her soul
she is hiding
no one knows the pain she seals
inside her lips, inside her lungs
yes, her fear overcomes her
yes, her life is too much
no longer.
i will not let you do this to me.
