Crushed By The Weight of Truth Buried, Under the dusty rubble of fallen bricks From a condemned house of secrets Haunted by betrayal and fear That the skeletons of a heinous crime May fail to turn to dust Suffocated By a the silver electrical tape of pledge confidentiality I am bound to a rocking chair Outside of his empty closet facing the cracked window where the wrecking ball of posthumous justice Has lost its momentum Julia Masi

Crushed By The Weight of His Secret
Crushed By The Weight of Truth Buried, Under the dusty rubble of fallen bricks From a condemned house of secrets Haunted by betrayal and fear That the skeletons of a heinous crime May fail to turn to dust Suffocated By a the silver electrical tape of pledge confidentiality I am bound to a rocking chair Outside of his empty closet facing the cracked window where the wrecking ball of posthumous justice Has lost its momentum Julia Masi
