My Other Life

Clearly you can see that I am bleeding

Clearly you can see my clothes are torn

Clearly this demands an explanation

Only I can offer none



My other life



Witnesses have placed me at the crime scene

Forensic evidence concurs

Samples taken from under my fingernails

Support the prosecutions case



My other life



Analysis failed to find a motive

Hypnotists have failed to break the code

Journalists are camped out on my doorstep

Per chance that I might slip and drop the key



To my other life



Welcome to my made for TV movie

I look strangely placid on the stand

You can be the judge and do the jury

Consider please the allegations



My other life



I slip away to my other life

With no regret or remorse

Happy and gay in my other life

No need to wake me Monday morning

From my other life
