We are the Saints;
We signed our life away.
We are the Sinners;
We gave it all away.
We are the Lovers;
We just walked away.
We are the Fighters;
We made them limp away.
We are the ones, the only ones;
We are the gods of kingdom-come.
Author notes
Ok. The first 2 lines are from the Motley Crue song "Saints of Los Angeles"
and the last 2 lines are from the Queen song "Gimme the Prize"
Other than that, its all mine.

awesome.... i really like the concept of the write. i dont know the rules of the contest you entered but i wish you would of had more of your own work into it. also i felt like the lines were a bit choppy i didnt feel a smooth transition and im a sucker for descriptive words and there wasnt to many of them here.... but thats about the only negatives. i loved your wording and the overall concept of the piece good job and i hope you do good in the contest with it
