A Lifetime lost
As I lay in the night and ponder at the mistakes I made when I was younger your my biggest the only one of importance you took me by hand a lamb to the slaughter
You robbed me of everythg my body my looks but I held on to you like a flea dose a dog
I lost my family my friends all of my pride you were always there right by side
I wept and I cried I begged you to go when you did I followed no life of my own
You were master and i was your slave
you dragged me to hell and back again
As I sit and look back of the life I could have had I wish I never met you your evil and bad
You hide in the shadows for another victim to snatch another soul to fall into your deathly grasp
i weep for young who next you will slaughter I pray you keep your hands of my son and my daughter
If I see one of the devil's that peddles your wears even look at them sideways this promise I make
it will be the last thing that they ever shall do I will rip their Hart from their chest and stamp on it too
For me it's too late you have taken all that I had
stay away from my kids them you can not have
to protect them I will do all that I can
I will sell my soul to the devil again and again
You have left me a shell of the girl I once was
dead and empty inside nothing left for you to rob
If I could go back in time knowing what I do now one things for certain I would Never try you
