The way was to wander off the set course

Now before you say "No-"

Just realize we all know

Nevermind, he'd have to want it

"He knows it" She was told as she tried to cover her secret

Must've been wary of the "Don't worry"

A fourth or seventh time-

To fly away then, that beautiful soul

He fixed her with fear

Protected her with a cage

Then a new man came and took her away

Wrapping a silk strip over those stormy eyes

While whispering, "I'll take your pain away."

Show her a paradise beyond the grave

For how was she supposed to know then

That he'd keep his promise but in a different way

Giving her an unmarked grave instead of a wedding day
