Day of Reckoning

Why can't you just let me burn? I have to because it's my turn My day of reckoning has come And my pain has just begun My eyes are open, now I see Everyone has just been using me No love only lots of hate The devil is waiting, we've got a date I can hear the screaming, no I won't cry It's my fault I had to die I knew god never had my back He vanished when I smoked that first sack I tried to live a good life But I couldn't help but use the knife When my blood flowed out of my skin I was wildly attracted to the sin Now I'm in hell, no happiness around In the corner there's dead bodies in a mound My nightmares are coming true, this is my reality I've sacrificed my last bit of sanity There's no hope for me please run My future is full of sorrow, no fun
