As a lamb to the slaughter
That is how she went
Falling into his eyes
Her time was spent

Heartbreak unbeknownst
She blindly followed suit
It felt so good at the time
She did not know she was duped

The stars seemed to shine
Brighter every night
She dreamed of only good things to come
She thought the planets were aligned

The earth moved beneath her feet
The ground she never touched
She thought herself alive and free
Never a door was shut

As a lamb before the slaughter
That is how it was
Her heart now left in pieces
Shattered upon the rug
