"Mercy Killers"
I am the vehicle that drives his daily thoughts
To be the only one on his mind shouldn't I want?
I drive for miles and miles, covering him in exhaust
I am the liquor that stains his hardened lips
When the bottle runs dry he savors every sip
If only I could have been as quick of fix
I am the protagonist of his dreams
He casted and directed me into every scene
And erased them all when I went to sleep
For I am the reason, I am the fault, I am the burden that spun your entirety to a halt
I lit the match and we made sparks, now I left hell to burn in your heart
I am the pack on the traveler's shoulder
He falls to his knees and pleads to "just hold her"
He lifts me up and lays me onto the earth
He didn’t know the weight when I gave him my heart
In sickness and in health, till death do us part
We made promises I can never unhurt
I used love to end my misery
He chokes on life and death I breathe
Stuck with ghosts and I am free
