Forced words of remorse sear my throat
As embers of empty apologies
Turn to ashes at your ears
Incinerating my will to compromise

Your visage mirrored
Across a thousand shards of broken glass
Reflections of the victim
You've made yourself to be
Twisting every word into a blade
The edge of every lie you speak
Carves and lacerates the truth from me

A liars tongue
In the mouth of a coward

Blood will stain the path you take
And remain
As the grave of every choice you made
