Betrayed

Contributed by dc on Saturday, 31st December 2005 @ 07:11:09 PM in AEST
Topic: oops



When there’s nothing left – there’s no confusion
When it’s all a lie - there’s no belief
And there’s a peace in emptiness
Even failure offers some relief

Like St. Peter when the rooster crowed - Like Judas rolled over for a bag of gold
There’s nothing left to feel or reason to be afraid

Like St. Peter when the rooster crowed - Like Judas sold out for a bag of gold
There’s no one to be strong for and I have been betrayed
I have been betrayed

Death like a shot of heroin – Warmth and calmness rolling through my veins
Drowning all these frantic demons – Sooth and saturate my brains
Rid this haggard, tired body of a wounded soul that could not heal
Next life, place it just a little deeper and cast it in a shell of steel

And there’s a peace in emptiness – Even Failure offers some relief
When there’s nothing left - there’s no confusion
When it’s all a lie - there’s no belief
And there’s a place – that you just end up
Man, you’re thinking it’s all wrong
But once you’re in there – It’s so familiar
Like you knew it all along

Like St. Peter when the rooster crowed - Like Judas rolled over for a bag of gold
There’s nothing left to feel or reason to be afraid
Like St. Peter When the rooster crowed – Like Judas sold out for a bag of gold
There’s no one to be strong for – And I have been betrayed
I have been betrayed

Once again, I read and I am blown away. I was deeply moved by this stanza....

"Death like a shot of herion-Warmth and calmness rolling through my veins
Drowning all these frantic demons-Sooth and saturate my brains
Rid this haggard, tired body of a wounded soul that could not heal
Next life, place it just a little deeper and cast it in a shell of steel"

This was good man, really good. Peace to you, Laura
