who would of known

A never ending nightmare
Truth or dare
In a cup
Give me a choice
And I'll choose
A fighter I never lose
A battle born spirit
In the need of a little lift
Like I need another guitar rift
Look at me shift
Between joy
And sorrow
Its like osmosis tomorrow
Give me a mouth to mouth transfusion
Give me a taste of your heart
I'll leave it up to you if we part
Cause I'm bound for another place
In life's race
I take a shortcut
a turn down an alley
Like deaths valley
Who knows what the future holds
But I hold a pen
So I'll tell you where I begin
A heartache with a shot of sin
A sunset in the eye of the storm
And I've never felt so warm
Chaos and peace in a mixer
Do I leave her
Or do I deal with the shivers
Numb and cold
My heart beats true
Black blue
I'm breathing
Bring it to a dead end
And I'll still be a friend
With a body of scars
Connect them like a constellation of stars
On top of the world
I wonder if it'd be so bad to fall
Even now I stand tall
Look to the skies for hope
Look at these eyes
See how hard it is to cope
I talked to the devil
He told me I'm a cause in the body of a rebel
Now that's a story to tell
Throw coins in this wishing well
I looked at him and said
What's my soul worth
He told me
Look and see
The fire and pain
This pit of damned and forgotten
The healthy have now rotten
I house the darkness
As to hide it from the world
Every morbid thing done
I swept under my rug
All the O.D's from the drugs
Lay here
Those who are twisted with fear
He took a sip of beer
He told me my fate
Is to open the gate
Let hell loose
So here I am with a pen and pad
I'm the damned and mad
He said it with a smile
I told the devil
Give me the key
I am releasing
Every forgotten soul in my words
Feel a dead heart underneath the shirts
I have sympathy for him
I'm going out on a limb
And saying
What's the use of praying
Laying down a path to walk
When all I know is how to talk
Talley marks in chalk
For how Many times I could of died
Out weigh the times I tried
Now tell me this
If I have lied
Who would of known.
