i'm not afraid to stand alone

torn from a womb of hatred
by hands filthy with sin
force fed the fears of my fathers
nursed on shame and guilt
taught to be myself
until my feet left their worn out path
*****-slapped by reality
family is not always there
to have your back when it's against a wall
sometimes they're the ones that put it there
sometimes they wanna take you down
to make sure you taste the *****
that they swear you'll always be
***** everyone and everything
i'm not afraid to stand alone
i don't need an army to win this war
i don't need anyone
if i fall, i'll fall alone
but my pride will drive me to rise
and if you look, you'll see no fear
in these weary eyes
only years of hate, years of rage
and scars that you can't hope to top
shoot me, stab me, hang me, burn me
you know i'll never stop
beyond all pain
i'll wipe away all sorrow
no one will wake to the same old problems
no one will see tomorrow
like some twisted Santa
down your chimney i'll creep
smothering you and your family
in your sleep
and when the sun rises
on this crypt of an earth
there'll be only me, and one woman i spared
in the throes of birth
her baby delivered, i'll christen it Hope
and then smother it too
i'll kill the mother, then myself
cuz, that's all that's left to do
you made me a monster
but i guess i helped too
and i hope you know that i won't die
without all of you
***** everyone and everything
i'm not afraid to stand alone
i don't need an army to win this war
i don't need anyone
if i fall, i'll fall alone
but my pride will drive me to rise
and if you look, you'll see no fear
in these weary eyes
only years of hate, years of rage
and scars that you can't hope to top
shoot me, stab me, hang me, burn me
you know i'll never stop

This is quite a nice one. In fact very much look like a song to me. It would sound good if Nine Inch Nails band sings it? :o)
Good work. Best wishes!

| Excuse me, but I think that I just wet myself... with this one piece, you have brought me to my knees with only one word on my lips.... Master! |
