Another day another dime.
Slave away or commit a crime.
Fly form poverty to sin.
Live my life with a guilty grin.
Kneel before a judge so true.
The spoils are my gift from me to you.
Another day another dime.
My gift to you was worth the time.

Gravity

We are cursed by gravity, ever pulling each other closer.
Fearful of what would happen if we would ever become one.
Would we cease to exist or create something beautiful.
Only time will tell.
But when we are together time stands still.
So we will probably never know.

My body is close to breaking
My mind not far behind
My muscles scream surrender
My bones be splintering fine
As I take my final strides
A blackness consumes my mind
An images ever so blurry
Becoming clearer over time
I blink again and smile
My passion
My power
My pride
They will never waver
Never shudder
Never slide

My scars map the path I've come.
I do not regret what I have done.
They show me I have forte and won.
I no longer hide them they see the sun.

To say I'm ok is a lie and I will not entertain that for a second
Because A second can change a mans life
Be it for good or bad
From winning the lottery to losing a close friend
That mans life is changed forever
I have had 3 hours of that one second
And I can't say I am a better man for it
But I am more experienced and all the wiser for them
Every second
Bringing back someone that the world has fines so wrong to
It is draining on the sole
Seeing them with a knife pressed to there throat
Seeing the look of frustration in his eyes
Seeing him snap and attack the one he loves
It is something that I won't wish on my worst enemy
But the thing that will haunt me
The thing that will keep me up at night
Knowing
Being able to recall everything
The exact moment that you broke
That second
Your second
The one you have no memory of
That second I had to pull you off her
That second you had your hand around her throat
That second you had that same knife to her throat
That second you tried at me with it
That second it only just nicked my side
That second you broke down
I don't know if I can ever tell you that gap
That memory will be mine alone
That memory will be mine forever
I hope the best for you
But I have to cut you from my life
Because next time
It will be me that breaks
And I will not miss
But I will remember
