Save Your Prayers

I am the disease that rots your brains
The tragedy floating through your veins
I am the cancer that spreads within
Twisting where you end and I begin

The closer you get, the harder I am to shake
And I beg of you, don't ever make that mistake
You'll live to regret me
And die to forget me

I wouldn't wish myself upon anyone
Save your prayers for a soul more deserving

I am the sickness that steals your soul
The demon child out of your control
I am the evil that haunts your dreams
The nightmare that screams to be believed

The closer you get, the harder I am to shake
And I beg of you, don't ever make that mistake
You'll live to regret me
And die to forget me

I wouldn't wish myself upon anyone
Save your prayers for a soul more deserving

Haven't you heard?
I'm damaged goods
Too far gone to ever be redeemed
Haven't you heard?
I will destroy
All that doesn't revolve around me

Save your prayers
Save your prayers tonight
Save your prayers for a soul more deserving

Author notes

I have a horrible tendency to take things out on the people who deserve it the least.

Please tell me what you think

    Beautiful

    This would make a great song. I can relate to it, I hate how I hurt the ones I love the most. This was really excellent though. I loved the flow it carried you all the way to the end.

    "Twisting where you end and I begin"

    --that is a wicked line. This would be an awesome song ... if the music was played out right

    "You'll live to regret me
    And die to forget me"

    --I agree with borderline, these are amazing lines.

    "I am the evil that haunts your dreams
    The nightmare that screams to be believed"

    --that's some freaky shit right there. Sounds like something taken out of Candyman.

    Gothic metal ... it'd sound good with these lyrics. Some heavy instrumentation, crazy ass guitar solos, and an operatic voice, oh yeah.

      I agree that gothic metal would definitely work. The sad thing is, I could never pull that off. Hahah. Then again, with some collaborations, you never know. It's odd that I write songs that don't match the way I sound.

      I always like reading your comments. It's interesting to see which parts someone reacted to the most. Thanks!
