Amber 2 (Unforgiven)

Path clear, plans sincere

Retribution for all those years

You took my life away

Beating me worse day after day

Hate is what my love became

Playing your fucking mind game

You should have just left me alone

but just had to pick up the phone

Just wanted to apologize

but we both knew those were lies

You could never change

the Idea of love is strange

Your words, yet I gave myself to you

If then I only knew

your abusive behavior

but I am your new wife's savior



The sun sets, as the night mourns

an approaching storm, as thunder warns

he makes his way to his door



"So you have a new whore.

a new pet for your game?

Oh wait, it was the drink to blame.

Do you hit her?

Never, I'm sure.

You were easy to find

I got your friend request and message

which I declined.

Why didn't you just leave me alone?

I should have known...

but you couldn't just leave it be

You couldn't allow me to be free."



Raindrops fall from the sky

As the gun comes up chest high

my nerves begin to quake

my mind starts to ache.

I want to squeeze the trigger

His eyes grow bigger

as she comes screaming out the door

as the thunder roars.



"Please don't take him from my boy

you will destroy

the family we finally made

I know what he did, and it will never be repaid

But I told him to find you

because I knew.

I am sorry if it caused you harm

but please don't do this.

this life is mine and his.

He doesn't hit anymore."

as the sirens roar

tears fall from my eyes



Did I fill my own mind with lies?

Has he changed?

Am I just deranged?



I fall to my hands and knees

listening to her pleas.

Tossing the gun to the side

as handcuffs are quickly applied

as the rain pours down upon my soul

Torment took its toll



"You were right...

he beats us every night."



As I stare at the young boy,

soaking in the rain holding a stuffed toy

and there I am locked in a car's cage

with an incurable rage...
