I'm the girl who obeys
Who does what she's told
I never run or fight
My brain always controlled
Sleek brown coat
Big doe eyes
Prancing through the forest
I was caught by surprise
You were beautiful
Controlled by emotion
I was mesmerized
I didn't see the corrosion
I don't struggle against you
I think I want to live
I know you're angry
And I hope you'll forgive
I stare into the lights
I stare at an escape
I do what you ask
And never make a mistake
Your car barrels towards me
I stay where I am
Maybe in the next life
I won't be as ******
I cant run away
I'll stand there frozen
With my chest on display
I'll lay on my back
With my heart exposed
It's like I'm already dead
Like my body's decomposed
The road rumbles beneath me
I see a better life
A way to finally please you
So l lean into the knife

So l lean into the knife
This is to raise awareness about domestic abuse
