The silence is my fortress
She lies in wait, the duchess
I'm astounded by her story
She's in it for all the glory

I can't catch a break
She's leaning, leaning to take
I'm running
She's cunning

I can't get away
She's not afraid
Nowhere can I turn
She's there, there to yearn

I'm all she wants
She's full of taunts
It comes at a price
I can't just throw the dice

Sometimes, I can't control her
Sometimes, she'll never falter
It's a game we play
It's a game of decay

It can eat one alive
It can on someone thrive
Don't you know what it is?
Don't you know who she is?

It's up to you to figure it out
It's up to you not to pout
When you can't get away
Cause she's there, there to stay

So who or what do you guys think the duchess is?
