once upon a time I thought I’d end bloody
claws, teeth, fire, blunt force trauma
figured I’d take the sonuvabitch with me
figured I’d save a few people on the way
I was cool with that
what a fucking joke, there is no end
there’s just hell, eternal torment
pain ripping me to pieces and searing the wounds
until I forgot why, until I picked up the knife
until I became a worse monster than anything I’d hunted
and I liked it
here’s the funny part, that wasn’t the end
angels pulled me out
propped me up, made me remember
showed me the past, present and future
showed me just how screwed we are
and all I am's a weapon
took one in the chest, couldn't lay down to rest
there’s just heaven, instant-replay hallmark moments
until Zachariah showed up to screw with us
couldn’t keep me from remembering for even five minutes
couldn’t show me a single time when you gave a damn
think I preferred hell
and I’m just, I’m so fucking tired of it all
you’re gonna say ‘yes’, only question’s when
so I might as well go first, end it like I started it
maybe I can save a few people, maybe Michael can end me
maybe that’s the closest thing to luck I’ll get in this life
so I’m going all-in
win or lose, at least it'll be over
