I'm tired of the games The circles run and old tricks stuck on repeat For all its worth, what little that is Time after time I have ruined something pure Taken what was bestowed upon her And tossed it right back in her face Evil and corrupt I walk this path Some kind of monster I have become Second chances pass me by Almost daily it would seem I ignore them My salvation stands beside me all the while Ever the more I push it further away Crash and burn, let my fire die slowly Unprecedented disregard Where is the cliff that should lay in front of me? Down this path so absent of light Soon I should be forgotten Lost in a place no one will find me Better will I leave this place No longer tormented by my ways Lives left to happier days Selfish, twisted and wicked No one left to burden On myself it will all lie Turned inward to destroy its creator
