There's no escaping what happened to me
I left the door locked, but he had the key
I don't know what he wanted
I don't know what he thought he'd get
But it wouldn't be me
You want to read the story
And you want it to be happy
Where the girl is such a beauty
And the guy never lies
It started off surprisingly well
He had the looks, I didn't know him well
Became my one and only
Then only he could be with me
That was his tell
You recognise the story
And you want me to be happy
That I will see it clearly
For the truth he denies
I lost who I was and never could please
It never was love, yet it turned into years
I finally was able
He finally released me
There would be more more tears
I know you know the story
You want it to end happy
Where nobody dies
There is no escaping what happened to me
I left the door locked, but he had the key
The door slammed
The knife shone
The blood ran
Then I was free
The end of me
