Amber

In hindsight
Eyes so clear
I should have trust my own
Sense of right and wrong
And I can't escape it

As if I would have it
Any other way

This limelight
Is a lie
It's citrus in the eye
And blindingly bright
And I can't escape it

The way you trapped me
In your amber
I wish I could just
Wither away instead
The way you trapped me
In your amber
I wish I could just
Wither away instead

You turned me
Into stone
And left me all alone
To drown beneath the floes
With violent
Eyes like knives
You cut me to the bone
And ridiculed the wound
And I can't escape it

The way you trapped me
In your amber
I wish I could just
Wither away instead
The way you trapped me
In your amber
I wish I could just
Wither away
