Slayed Life

Tonight brought back memories of the slayed life
Of hopes and trust of a new born child
Slaughtered into pieces by just one blow of fake pride
Tonight brought back memories of the slayed life

Of hopes and trust of a new born child 
She remembered the fearful first night
When she; a guileless nipper was violated against all her might
Of hopes and trust of a new born child

She remembered the fearful first night
Which continued into a couple of dreary nightmares
When she couldn't sleep for the fear of the lurking prey
She remembered the fearful first night

Which continued into a couple of dreary nightmares 
Tonight brought back memories of the slayed life
She encountered all the humiliation once again at the altar of her matrimony and semblance of duty and love
Which continued into a couple of dreary nightmares

Tonight brought back memories of the slayed life
Of hopes and trust of a new born child
Slaughtered into pieces by just one blow of fake pride
Tonight brought back memories of the slayed life
