Explanation has no need
Yes you were blinded by greed
Your pockets you had to feed

The instrument you played well
Love is my jail cell

As you pluck the strings
Sadness starts to sing
Darkness covers our wedding ring

Lies fed my mind
Unhappiness would treat me kind
That gentle touch led me blind

As I look upon your dark complexion
I told myself you needed affection

Drowning in misery
Fake images of you loving me
Somehow I get lost in an unreal reality

The instrument you played well
Love is my jail cell

Foolishness took over my soul
At some present time I lost control

Allowing you to treat me cold
My self respect has been sold
Believing in the lies you told

As you pluck the strings
Sadness starts to sing
Darkness covers our wedding ring

The instrument you played well
Left me compel
Loving you is my jail cell
