A Dance With The Devil Can Only Leave You DeadA Poem by Travis PrinoThis life this love was just a game to you and this heart of mine has been broken in two over and over again that house that street it still means the same to me and our sad goodbye is the knife that makes me bleed over and over again but this time I win nothing can save you now when the beat of your heart's on the ground and when the silence comes rushing in you're the first one breaking skin nothing can save you now when the demons are crawling out and when the devil's got you by the hand you know what's coming next this life this love reminds you of what you had and this heart of yours never ever hurt this bad over and over again that house that street are the reasons that you bleed and our last goodbye leaves a scar from a cut too deep over and over again cause this time I win nothing can save you now when the beat of your heart's on the ground and when the silence comes rushing in you're the first one breaking skin nothing can save you now when the demons are crawling out and when the devil's got you by the hand you know what's coming next this rope your throat equals one last good time or this blade your wrist equals one last good cry this gun your head equals one last red mess or this pill your bed equals a chance I'll never miss and this time I win nothing can save you now when the beat of your heart's on the ground and when the silence comes rushing in you're the first one breaking skin nothing can save you now when the demons are crawling out and when the devil's got you by the hand you know what's coming next the end is now within sight as the devil takes you home with him tonight. © 2017 Travis Prino |
