[khg] taking the life
Nov. 30th, 2009 12:09 pmhe stole your plan to take over the world
took markers and crayon and made a mess
redrew all of your carefully plotted maps
but you wouldnt ask for anything less
he bought and sold your name
paid in cash and silver and traded for gold
took everything you held close and dear
never even asking how he could be so bold
he took you away from your family
from those who claimed to love you best
trained you to do things you never knew
never expecting you to do more than rest
he took your life and all that could have been
and now you never want to go back
and now you know how good it can be
and now you see things are right
and now you taste the life
and now you feel the warmth
