Poem:
I made a deal with the devil
So I lost track of my soul on the run
Nothing is real
The order is rapidly fading
Now I'm coming home
I tried to howl at the moon
But now I don't even make a sound
Please just let me breakdown
I'm drenched to the bone
And there's a war outside and it's raging
Death might just roll through town
Home is not the same, the times they are changing
Deep inside I know, time is just a melody
You can't start wishing if you can't let go
I have to see what there is to see
Because I can't stop now, please don't breakdown
Don't stand in the doorway
Keep your eyes wide the chance won't come again
Leap into the glorified dirt
Take your soul and leave your body for dead
Don't criticize what you can't understand..
