Last night |
|
Johnny died in a blink of an eye |
|
Under flickering moon with a sinister smile |
|
After 23 years of constant unease |
|
He thought a bullet would make 'em voices cease |
|
Determined to taste ice-cold hard steel |
|
While wondering how it would feel |
|
To fall in his knees by his own hand |
|
Conclusion... |
|
Hey, it must be grand! |
|
At the age of thirteen, nerves slashed the unclean |
|
Found himself in a maze, endless, unseen |
|
Take left, take right, reason vanished from sight |
|
Not a thing could make him feel alright |
|
Pull, Pull, |
|
Pull, Pull!!! |
|
The bullet brings peace and his peace was death |
|
One move would take him far beyond |
|
That is how |
|
Johnny took his final breath |
|
With this calming thought |
|
I cleanse my entity |
|
One gentle squeeze will finally set me free |
|
Last night |
|
Johnny died in a blink of an eye |
|
In a gunshot clad in a messiah's disguise |
|
After 23 years of constant unease |
|
He thought it was time for 'em voices to cease |
|
At the end of that day one life slipped away |
|
No one there to beg this one to stay |
|
One shell now lies in a crimson bed |
|
Would you take yours instead? |
