Demons and Jokers

I need to be saved from  
Myself. 
  My entire life has been a  
Living hell. 

  You could say my life style not 
Good for my health. 
  It's the only thing that ing 
Helps. 

  Drinking, drugging, smoking,  
Ended up under lock and key. 
  I was incarcerated all the time, 
Could not wait to be free. 

  A lost cause for sure, no help 
For me. 
  I'm damaged goods exposed for  
All to see. 

  I lived my life running against 
The wind. 
  Tempting the hands of fate again 
And again. 

  I'm aware of the consequences of 
My actions. 
  I'm not lacking in any human 
Compassion. 

  I see a world full of humans, 
No humanity. 
  Spreading Racism and Hate 
Behind Christianity. 

Modern Christians are a 
Threat to the nation. 
  A New World Order, 
Total domination. 

  A thousand years, a different 
Place and time. 
  One without demons and jokers 
Would have been just fine.
