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 now

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
