Drag Me Back To Hell

Drag Me Back to Hell By Kevin Robey April 13, 2013 Drag me back to hell, might as well See this spirit swell, go ahead and dwell You’re shocked you say, you didn’t know anyway Didn’t see the inner me, wait till my smile frays It’s a story you will write, a boy once so bright His skin didn’t burn, but he did lose his sight If you think he fell so far, see through the lies It became his demise, the demon’s great prize Regardless the heights his war-torn heart soared The darkness pulled him down and closed the door He fought all along, and the entire way down But he had to please the misery and drown Its winner takes all for everyone involved There was hope once before but has since dissolved Back to the darkness, with crimson comes the knife When the sentence is read, it is twenty nine to life
