From where did this dark cloud come? This black fog that has descended upon you That you breathe in, tainting the air That clings to you like soot Seeping inside through the pores of your skin Where did it come from And how do you hide it so well? An actress, for sure Hating her work
From profane tirades mixing lies with the truth Delivered loudly, directed at you Hateful words devoid of the love once expected Given up, lost to shame, tossed away, another burden For your bent back Heavy weights carried with the remnants of dignity that remain You say you can handle it, you can handle it all An actress for sure Hating her work
From where did this black cloud come? Descending, tainting, clinging, seeping Breathing
From the force of clenched fists The changes wrought by violence A thousand times the ringing sound A thousand times you kiss the ground Convinced, almost, that the blows are deserved The bruises spread, the blackened eyes Explained away with blatant lies An actress for sure Hating her work
From where did this gray cloud come? How do you hide it so well?
From the hardness of men possessed by lust Their ******* brains half-full of fantasy Their money as good as anyone's Eyes drinking in your mirror's reflection, unfeeling by necessity Imprisoned forever, trapped in a computer file Twenty minutes you will never get back, how many more Given away for an excuse, forfeited for an excuse: An actress for sure Hating her work
From where did this gray cloud come? From where did this dark cloud come? From where did this black cloud come? Can it get any darker?
How will Light find you? A white-robed Deity Or the barrel of a gun?
