Hypocrites, backstabber's
all in a row
Masks on their faces
so the dirt doesn't show
Ears pricked with interest
all wanting to know
so called 'news'
tabloid gossip
via the purest of souls!
From the outside it's the good life
calm draws you in
From the inside comes a sharp knife
cutting from within
I felt I was trapped
thought I wouldn't get out
thought no one would hear me
Should I scream, should I shout?
There had to be a breakout
I knew I had to break loose
from the chains of this ‘safe house’
the allure of the noose
Amidst the bells as they tolled out
unleashing the aloof
A cry could be made out
A Former Recluse!
