Soul to Take

(album: Krimson Crow - 2020)

I don't trust myself because I'm sick of being lied to
Look in the mirror my reflection seeing right through
All of my issues and mistakes are staring back at me
Why don't you take the pistol put one in ya agony
Depression be messing with my sanity
Repression be stressing my humanity
I'm to the point where I don't really give a fuck
I'd rather drown in gasoline and light the whole thing up
Take a picture I might not be here tomorrow
All the time that I have has been wasted used or borrowed
Tear it up and let my memory fade
You don't need no reminders of the memories made
I'm feeling sorry for myself again
Searching for some answers maybe I should just phone a friend
But I just lock it all away
Save all of these questions for another rainy day

The weather's getting cold outside yeah
And I don't wanna say goodnight no
But everything goes away
I pray to God when I do there's a soul to take
And I'm feeling like I lost my way
Thinking they'll be hell to pay
And I'm hanging by a broken string
Not noticing these broken wings yeah

I never thought that I was good enough
And any second now I could erupt
Yeah suicide has always been the back up
When everything finally starts to stack up
I try to stay positive. have a lot to live for
All of them supportive I don't think that they could give more
And I appreciate it from the depths of my soul
But my soul is not the problem it's my head on the pole
Some tell me that it's chemical
There's something wrong physical
Opinions always plentiful
But this shit is getting critical and damn I'm cynical
That I'm gone step up out this hell and see the light
Will there be a happy ending will I be alright
Or will this demon finally start to speak
Whisper in my ear it's time to go to sleep

The weather's getting cold outside yeah
And I don't wanna say goodnight no
But everything goes away
I pray to God when I do there's a soul to take
And I'm feeling like I lost my way
Thinking they'll be hell to pay
And I'm hanging by a broken string
Not noticing these broken wings yeah
