Scars prt 3
Under my skin scars of ink much pain
deeper than the North West Pacific Rim
Back off now and step away from the edge
Of this under 6ft stiff upper lip
Scars of life's ups and downs
stretch the length of the earths love stench
The stone cold wind blows the soulless skeletons
the closet of this life much emptiness here
Steel train on the highway to Hell
rattled the rail tracks of the little red caboose
I hope and pray deep down that I'm not too late
I'll try and save your blackened sacred heart
Broken glass let behind shards razor sharp
your tainted perfume poisoned tipped thorns
poisoned my fucking soul deep downstairs
Heart of gold somewhere in a frozen time
you turned it into liquid lead instead of loves beautiful gift
I got last prize a much used box of Pandora shit wish list
I got a broken heart for my troubles and a soul that's leaking
Backs to the dry wall, you left me out on the edge of nothingness
I had one choice no one place left to hide stuck in a rut no damn good
Heart was once a raging fire totally out of control only you soothed it
now just a smouldering mess of blood and lead left on the shelf of life
Someday, one day soon theses crazy minds will surely let me let go of you.
