Something Borrowed

See the barrel pick it up cock it back down on your luck. aim for that pull it good one shot do what you should. borrow a bullet steal the gun aim to kill on the run. no looking back no sorrow for the dead laugh maniacly not one tear to shed. thoughts drive you to this dark place sit and boil grin at the kill no time to recoil. settle in its a long night get cozy get it right. aim to please only your mind check it off one more to find. in the mirror there you stand not so tough not such a man. maybe one more to please your ease just one drink lead you to feast. simple man so eager to wait keeping your fears to contemplate. borrow a soul steal a heart keep in mind your a man apart.
