My Hell
Seen the pits of hell
My story to tell
How low I had fell
My mind was the cell
Trapped in my decay
Couldn't escape no way
My infernal pay
Ominous to say
Had to show my might
Had to hold the fight
I was losing sight
I clutched to light
The fire it burned
An escape I yearned
My mind it had turned
So slowly I learned
In my head I'd shout
I need a way out
I can't sit and pout
No more holding doubt
I fought to the path
Figured out the math
The feeling of wrath
I did seem to hath
The feelings possessed
Had been laid to rest
The way I was blessed
Was at the highest
I before felt blown
Guilty like a drone
Felt a heart of stone
Now I did atone
