Never had a Chance
Bleeding on the ground
I'm dying
a red stain spreading
soaking into cloths and hair
sticky
dead and not dead
I will live
but my soul so mortally wounded
by past sins and guilt
the weapons used for murder
with sharp and cutting thrusts
my soul never had a chance
it is so comfortable here
lying on the floor
the coolness comforts my flesh
and I have no place to go
so I lay here dying
there is so much I wanted to see
so much to feel
oh, and music
how can I feel the music
without a soul?
I let my guard down
just for an instance
and society snuck in
conformity broke in
and a man carjacked my soul
so here I am
contemplating mortality
It's not so bad dying
peaceful
letting go of everything
oh shit, I'm late for work
maybe they won't notice
the stench of my dying soul
I don't know
but I think we'll just smell the same
