Tears of Blood

Lost in the endless labyrinth of grief
I try to find a way out
But my efforts are rendered futile
Plagued with uncertainty, doubt.
You know all this and yet
You continue to torment me so
I’ve tried to escape so many times
And you always refuse to let me go.
You won’t see me cry tears of Blood
I won’ let you destroy my life
I will escape, get away
I will fly.

You try to restrain me
With words that the me
You make me feel guilty
You blackmail me
You don’t want me for yourself.
But you loathe letting me go
You curtail my freedom spitefully
Your behaviour violent, low
You cannot make me cry tears of blood
I won’t let you destroy my life
I will escape, get away
I will fly.

I am a bloom that you destroyed
Crushing my glow in you darkness
You made me wilt with your cruelty and vice
Kept me on a leash, with a harness
You took away my innocence, my honour
With you, my childhood died
You callously crushed my youth
But I will not let you destroy my pride
You cannot make me cry tears of blood,
You cannot take away my life
I will escape, get away.
I will fly.

You try so hard t curb me,
But my lord, it is all coming to an end.
You cannot make me weep tears of blood
You cannot make me wilt and die
I will escape, I will fly.
I will survive.
