The Night Before

   In this life all we have to give

Takes it’s toll on our will to live

Breaking us down till we are un-whole

Stealing little pieces of our soul

Taking our air so we can’t breathe

Showing us love meant to deceive

Shutting down memories inside your brain

Leaving you lifeless, feeling so much pain

Burning pictures of you and your friends

Leaving you with nothing in the end

No idea of who you really are inside

Like some big part of you has died

An outsider that no one will ever understand

And that is why no one notices the gun in your hand

Placing the barrel to another ones head

One more wall covered in red

No one will suspect that it’s you

No one really knows the evil things you do

They would have to care enough to know

But they never know until it’s their time to go

You start to wonder just how they feel

As they awake staring into cold steel

You pause to watch the fear grow in their eyes

Just before they die they realize

All along they knew

This whole time it was you

You pull the trigger, you don’t care

No one else knows you were there

Squeeze again, hold it tight

Another dead body grows cold tonight

Next morning, another day

Last nights memories being washed away

You forget about what you’ve done the night before

You erase the memories of the body on the floor

Still tonight when the moon chases away the sun

You will stalk your prey, clutching your gun

Another victim will be silenced

Disposing their lives with absolute violence

Tip of your gun to the tip of their lip

As you prepare to give them a sip

You hope they desire

The taste of lead and fire

No one will be saved

As you send them to an early grave

You continue to press your luck

Cause you don’t give a fuck

Besides no one knows you were there

Even if they did they probably wouldn’t care

Because to them you are no one

Just a ghost holding a gun

You begin to squeeze off round after round

Sending their bodies crashing to the ground

Soon they all will see what you see

Because it is them who destroyed what you used to be

Now you’re just a murderer killing everyone

Just another crazy fuck with a gun
