As good as it gets
How can I peacefully fight for peace?
How can I win in the ring when my opponent is the referee?
I've seen the work of bribe money spent against me
A special thanks to my enemies for always being there for me
I've found better investments than friends
Bought stock in abandonment and doubled my profits
I'm the lone legend of coldness
Found loneliness on the corner of Memory Lane and a fifth
Finally got what I always wanted
And I sure built shoulder strength holding all the burdens of earth
Never heard a word of truth in a church so I gave up the search
Awoke to the familiar sight of a surgeon's mask
After I tried to bite the bullet but it was too fast
I didn't even crack a smile while breathing the laughing gas
And the ultrasound revealed an air cavity in my chest
Compliments of the cardiac harvest
And if I flatline, use the crash cart and give me a recharge
"Nobody gets out alive" says the guard at the graveyard

I find truth in your words although they were spoken in ironic mockery of the establishments and entities causing pain and sufferings to many.
Nicely crafted, worthy of my time.

Thank you for your opinion.
It's odd how something make more sense when we look at them from another perspective.
Sometimes what we say and what we mean is two different things.

The first four lines are definitely my favorite. Especially that last one. I cannot tell if it is sarcasm or a twisted truth. But I like it:)Great work
