And I don't know
How you can choose him
Over your family
You've created this tragedy.
Him
Over your own flesh and blood
You've dragged us
Through the mud.
How can you believe his lies?
How could you not recognise?
The wolf in sheeps skin
The world he tries to keep you in
The way he always tries to pin
The blame on me.
The way you always let him win.
You don't see the way it's been.
The way he tries to keep his reputation
So clean.
It's sick.
The walls of deceit
He's layered them thick.
Using the lead
He covers his dead
Conceals his mistakes
His heart is filled with hate.
It's me he tries to break.
All he's done
Is created another earthquake.
Consumed by the world he wishes
He could make.
Not for you
Only for himself
He's only concerned
With money and wealth.
And you know it
I don't know why
You can't show it.
Why you continue to blame me
When it's right there
So obvious to see.
But I guess this is the
Easy way
I guess that's why you
Choose to stay
Why you play his games
Why you carry his shames.
But I'll tell you
Now.
I refuse
To take the blame
For something I haven't done
How could you possibly think
I made this up for fun?
But in a way I thank you
You've shown me 
Who you really are.
And also that clearly
You've stumbled off
Somewhere very far.
But really,
Now that I'm gone
Is life that much better?
Isn't the problem with the money
Still there?
Aren't all those bad feelings you
Said were my fault
Still in the air?
Doesn't the house still look like
No one cares?
Aren't you both still worried about
The other having an affair?
Don't you still have whiney kids?
Containers with no lids?
A mountain of dishes?
A million ungranted wishes?
But now that I'm here
Isn't it just what you feared?
Everything is still the same.
Only now you don't have me
There to blame
Isn't it such a shame?
You'll have to find someone else
To trap inside
Your bullshit game.

Michelle.
