Demolition Job

Where are they now All those that knew me Knives in my back Piercing right through me So much to gain From my demise It was so easy By just telling lies. It took 20 years To do this to me It's no longer obvious What I might be Surrounded by evil Greed and malice Wanting to steal My sacred chalice Not just that But everything I am left with nothing Not even a ring They try to scare me But it doesn't work They hate the fact That their jibes I can shirk. Will I survive to see tomorrow? I say to myself everyday Why must I live my life in sorrow? It was never meant to be this way? No friends Just predators and weapons No love Apart from the love of my dear son. May God Protect us Both
