Revenge of a Trophy Wife & Other Elegies
Now This anger has dried out But this flesh is nothing But a damp Cloth That's meant to be wrung out For the excess guilt still Has to be removed For the cloth Has taken the shape of your Will Have these warnings to dismiss Have this wrath to make it yours Have this body to reclaim As if you'd always owned it Here take this pain And make it all yours Like you always did Like you always do I wish I could Blame you for this Rather than Me I wish I could Blame you for this Rather than Me Rag doll toy No longer inanimate I I wash off the torment With dissent Every chance I get With dissent Every chance I get I wish I could Blame you for this Rather than Me I wish I could Blame you for this Rather than Me

How long til this body Feels Whole again? How long til this Story feels Like mine again? How long til How long til I wish I could cut it deep So that I could bleed out loud This crater I should keep For me Just below the ground I will hate you til the day I no longer anymore Hate myself the same way Until it hurts no more I wish I could cut it deep So that I could bleed out loud This crater I should keep For me Just below the ground I will hate you til the day I no longer anymore Hate myself the same way Until it hurts no more I wish I could cut it deep So that I could bleed out loud This crater I should keep For me Just below the ground I will hate you til the day I no longer anymore Hate myself the same way Until it hurts no more How long Til this body Heals itself Feels whole again? How long Til this story Finally feels Like mine again?

I'm not blaming you For hiding whole worlds Behind little nothings I'm not blaming you For playing on words And their many meanings I'm not blaming you For warping my memory To show up in your best light I'm not blaming you For choosing the amnesty Rather than making it right But I do Blame you For making me feel So sorry As if the guilt was never yours To carry And I'm sick I'm tired Of wrapping myself In shame With a pain That's yours But you will not Reclaim I wish I had not Feared The sound of my voice And choked on the scream Within it I wish you had not Taken it from me The choice I thought I had For A minute But I do Blame you For making me feel So sorry As if the guilt was never yours To carry And I'm sick I'm tired Of wrapping myself In shame With a pain That's yours But you will not Reclaim I'm not blaming you For modelling my soul In the image of Your Desire I'm not blaming you For making me feel whole Only if I'd fed off Your Fire

Let go Open The door to square one Get to The end Only to go on Take the Tunnel That leads to nothing Channel The pain To nurture self-loathing Let go Open The door to square one Get to The end Only to go on Take the Tunnel That leads to nothing Channel The pain To nurture self-loathing Let go This mouse is old As this maze without a way out It's getting old As this tale that can't be wiped out This mouse is old As this maze without a way out It's getting old As this tale that can't be wiped out When will the hate and the rage Finally dry out? When will the mouse in the maze Find her way out? This mouse is old As this maze without a way out It's getting old As this tale that can't be wiped out When will the hate and the rage Finally dry out? When will the mouse in the maze Find her way out? When will the loop Become a road? And how low is too low For one to stoop to Let go Open The door to square one Get to The end Only to go on Take the Tunnel That leads to nothing Channel The pain To nurture self-loathing Let go Open The door to square one Get to The end Only to go on Take the Tunnel That leads to nothing Channel The pain To nurture self-loathing Let go What a mess What a mess What a mess of my time
