Disgraced And Erased

Punctuated with a single sound
As the sentence comes to an end
Close the door and shut the children’s eyes
Through a maze of lies, one day they’ll realize

Ruin, compromise
Seen through your judging eyes
Forevermore disgraced (and erased)

They recall like it was yesterday
Yet in every way, deny
Every document removes my name
Yet the family’s shame, we’re one and the same

Ruin, compromise
Seen through your judging eyes
Forevermore, disgraced

When darkness comes, hide everything
Beneath this light, unflattering
But please, don’t let me die like this
