The birds carried the whispers of your infidelity
The stab was too painful to endure
So I waved them away
Wondering why they schemed against you

The wind floated by in a gentle breeze
Telling the same story
I knew but again I chose to ignore
Half-truth half-lie

The dandelions giggled past
The same news try had come to share
Their judgement could not be refuted
So I went to see for myself

Seeing is believing
I comforted myself with your affection
Steeling myself for what was too come
Deceiving myself the whole time

Turned my back against the scene
But a sharp pain pierced my back
A sharp silver knife
A perfect aim

The red River flowed
No attention did you pay me
The knife twisted and turned
Inducing a deeper injury and an overflowing river

Was I only a ladder
Specially designed for you to climb higher
Was I only a door
Opening all the opportunities you needed.

Your infidelity may have been a fatality
However, you've offended the wrong foe
Watch each step carefully
You never know  when oil might make you slip.
