*
I stand on the outside,
And only look in,
No-one can see me,
Or know where I’ve been,
I watch from the window,
My glass prison wall,
Fate had enslaved me,
Fate watched me fall,
And windowpane tears,
Like soft falling rain,
Rattle the shutters,
The breeze of my pain,
*
In the room I see laughter,
And love in her eyes,
But I know you deceive,
Your smile a disguise,
I watch the light dimmer,
And see her life fade,
Your hands on her throat,
Her eyes on the blade,
*
I stand on the outside and only look in,
But now she can see me, for again he will win.
