Lost

A distant society of lost souls and tathered clothes
people finding their way in the dark with their eyes clothed

how come im still here tring to find my way out 
when my oppertunity is lurking as a shadow about

how come my tears only fall from the left side down 
only to hit the cold hard ground

as my life comes to an end 
I pray that the lord accepts my in
I pray his grace will keep me dear 
to make my hear clean and clear

an if not then satan damn my soul
arm me with arrows, bows, and harden clothes

cause imma solder, the enemy, a warrior within
with nothing to lose,
but new life to begain.
