The Place Within the Fire Part Iii

my world of tidal waves and sinking cities has not surprised me of falling towers and other such horrors its like ive accidentally seen them coming and now I hate this world thinking I'm some sort of god stuck in the middle of everything inspiring mirrors of muses and masterpieces and sometimes i wonder if god mad me bite off more than i could chew but htat fire within that crime i had to do to save my life i never meant to comit i would be dead if i didn't and maybe your daughters too and now word of mouth two towns and sa city know about a crazy guy who went nuts in a big way from some drug but no one knows the whole truth until this hits the streets and comes circling round and the police will have to admit i'm either more criminally minded than i care to realise or it was all an accident or that house was truly haunted but i'm a tired soul a lonely heart and my pillow is swollen from tears of nightly torments of the radio My story goes on this legacy continues and i care more for you than i let on and i hate the world sometimes for the way it has happened to me more than you will ever know but i am strong and i am weak i find love and hold onto it until they find a way to remove it from me or i poison myself another way but i dont lie and i dont hide I'm not a murderer I'm not arapist I'm not a sex offender just someone who lost their mind from drugs just about got murdered heard some bad news and had to get away and it haunts me everyday it has haunted me for years it has tormented me and i know i am guilty but i also saved more than just my life and i think thats worth more than one room of your house so i hope you keep that in mind wehn I publicize the letters i have written to hitmen who i know are out looking for a bounty to stalk this miracle with a gun my days are numbered again and this phoenix needs to be reborn but how many lives and chances do i have? the place from the fire within was the beginning of an wscape and a new chapter of my getaway and a new grape of wrath and an endless book of self rejection and emotional scars that hopefully one day heals for now work on you i know nothing will be the same but at least you have your sanity and mine is questioned everyday!
