serrated lies
cut this child away
from mother, from world
i cant save you
or die trying
i would give
my heart, my life
i will fight
but is stolen by anger, lust, greed
the gates to hell
are paved with good intentions
for the selfish, the innocent
pay all the pennants of this world
always have, always will
i will fight
if i could hold you
look into your eyes
convince you love exists
oh alive
