But she wasn't meant to be the one to decide
She slaughtered those who might have an opinion
Her flaw was exceptional arrogance
She would commit fratricide
His power gave him familial dominion
His riches were held close to his pocket
He gave his daughter a special locket
He married a woman to be his partner
Never lovers, he was not interested in another
So Lizzie used her axe to end the question
To answer the accusations at last she was to be free
For no one of the day could ever actually see
What was presented they could not condemn
A woman who'd be wounded by incest, rape or abuse
She refused the stand, it was of no use
