living on it
should have been dead before it
six foot under
ears dead to thunder
eyes dark to light
no future in sight
no more sorrow
not even a tomorrow
buried in the dirt
no more hurt

what don't kill you
strengthens to renew
joy with a dead smile
borrowed from the grim reapers pile
fools chasing to recoup
has me dead in his scope

i duck
i dodge
hide in my garage
he flew on past me
not knowing he missed me
he backed up to find me
tired of running
my sudden appearence
was stunning

i looked him right in the eye
he screamed
"you ready to die!"
i told him to take me
but instead he forsake me
took off like a bat out hell
then tripped and fell

i turned to see what frightened him
my guardian angel stunned him
surprised me too
then away she flew.
