a life well spent

was my life for you

and a heart well lent

was all yours, too

i'm dead with hate

and void of hope

i swallowed my pride

now i'm starting to choke

this broken machine

has torn me to bits

was in need of repair

when i was put in it

and now i'm in pieces

i'm a fraction of whole

struck down to hell

and bartered my soul

thought i was something

then i took a fall

cut me down to size

now i'm forced to crawl

willing to beg

and i'm willing to plead

bruised up my hands

and i'm down on my knees

paid off the reaper

still somehow in debt

but my life for you

was a life well spent
