She was on her way home, he was lying in wait Insistance from others had never led her astray She had a good day Was persuaded by summer air to walk instead of getting the train A decision so innocent, as innocent as she Uncorrupted so innocent and sweet An innocence interrupted by an incident A dissonance, two people so different in belief She came from the depths and ascended Bumped into he who demented Intent on inflicting the same pain that been led The decision made by he, for she had never consented An unprovoked and most venomous attack He took from her that which she cant get back And left her with that that she cant get rid of Which is why whenever its time for lift out She...
