Black Widow

He was a spider
I was a fly
I flew right into his sweet web of lies
I didn't struggle
Trusted his words
I was trapped
But wasn't concerned
I was deceived and blinded by words
Until he showed me his true form
A lying, evil, thief of love

A spider that wants to drink my blood
He sucked out my soul
Left me dead
I swore I'd never make that mistake again
I would keep myself guarded
With lock and key
Wouldn't ever let myself fall in too deep.
I'd be more careful
I'd be tough
I wouldn't be prisoner
but instead ally of love.
No longer a fly
But instead a bird
Flying free
I sing my sad song to the world
