lyrics

Jay
Where in hell am I? I think I hear a voice.
All I see is two doors, all I hear is white noise.
Void was the sight but with light in it’s frame
Now I’m here in empty space recall night feeling flame.


Angel
Well you should feel shame, for you hear that winter night
White met with red both from flame and from plight
The sight of God knows, your fight had been lost
Within your final acts three lives were the cost
You may deny the thought but I saw from above
Liquor, the fire burning down that white rug
Your actions upon the brought the kiss of death


Jay
What occurred that night? Tell me, or offer me some rest.


Angel
The smoke, inhaled by an infant child
The spoke impaled on a woman defiled
The taste may be mild but I see what you fear
The third is the man standing dazed right here.


Jay
I don’t understand, why am I here if I’m dead?


Angel
You’re here to be judged for the blood that you shed
You may defend for your voice may have cause for remorse
But at the end of this trial, you will walk through a door.
You can not lie, 32 years I have watched.
From your younger years to the family that you lost
To stay in the clouds away from flames burning blue
You may say all in your mind, but it must hold to be true.


Jay
I have none to expose, you may judge for yourself.
Thoughts of death were in my mind with no way to get help
I was almost never well, not a thing was ever right
Every thought of death killed me, every single night
I used to have a family that held my life together
But they just got up and left me, early last September.
Yes, I remember yet I want to forget.
I couldn’t support them. What did I expect.


Angel
I hear your lamentations yet I hear no remorse
For the sins you’ve committed, you let life take it’s course
You’ve forced yourself to live life with regret
Alcohol dependancy kept the knife from your neck.
You’ve always been a wreck but when your life fell apart
You blamed it on that, not what’s inside your heart


Jay
No, I blamed my misfortune and it’s rising tide.
Art couldn’t pay the bills and I couldn’t provide.


Angel
You tell lies, buried in what you believe to be true.
Even when you were born, your madness only grew.


Jay
No, you tell the lies, I know my soul.
Put me where you want, I don’t care for the toll.
I’ll stay sane for myself, so just send me to hell.


Angel
I doubt you’ll remain the same, your willingness deranged.


Jay
This is a trial, I plead guilty, Just ring the bells.


Angel
Okay! You’re sentenced to eternity of swallowing flame.


Goodbye Jay the Poet. and good luck on your journey.
