MY LIFE

Plotting my own death/About taking my own breath/I could feel the very second when my spirit died/Those who I loved bath in tears they cried/For me when overwhelming emotion collide/Go out in what I though to be a blaze of glory/Nobody knows me and I won't make history/Just one of pull of the trigger could end it so quickly/Too proud to take the cowards route/Hit after hit until I blackout/These drugs/Run through my blood/As I start to slip away/My only thought is how you betrayed/All the trust I put into you/And what little hope I would cling to/That someday you would change your deceitful ways/With all your unkept promises nothing ceases to amaze



Took away my life and let me live

Make me suffer since you can't forgive

What have I done that's so wrong

Other then remain where I don't belong



My body goes numb/No pain is felt my time to go has come/Quietly my soul leaves me/I watch over to see who grieves me/Only those who looked at me in respect/Thought I was a step away from being perfect/Admired who I was/Saw beyond the flaws/But I would look in the mirror at a reflection of me/Why didn't I see what they would see/So much undeniable talent gone to waste/Like all the dark lines I wrote were suddenly erased/But thats not the case/Everything I left behind will still be here/Every word I spoke was sincere/I was misunderstood but now its clear/I had something to prove/And nothing at all to lose



For every minute I draw a breath/I get closer to my final rest/Add a D to evil and thats who I'm about to meet/I have no fear as He steals my last heartbeat/This cross on the back of my neck is the only cross I bear/(Lord can you hear me)/He can't hear me I'm just another loss I swear/(I love it when they fear me)/As I meet my maker/My bodies laid to rest on Gods acre/My soul becomes His/No more questioning of what is/Cause now I know our purpose

This song is several years old. But very raw and one of my best

A striking philosophical
ballad of the human mind.

There are realities, riddles
and hopeful will to live
through this ending journey
called life...

I'll read this one often.
Cheers, Rachel! This is
a highly glarring piece!
