A reason that I took with you inside
That reason took over everything
As in my head you shined with pride

Shaky when I'm away from you
And coarse is my entire world
Smooth me out with a dollar
Make me forget a stupid girl

You are the angel of a certain salvation
And you bumped it straight to the head
I think I'll turn the volume up
Strum you straight down and dead

Fix me up like you used to
When it was that dollar that you found
Whisper quietly with a locked door
Be quiet when we take you, no not a sound

I couldn't argue with you
I have no will of my own
It's like you shoot me straight to the night sky
Free amongst the clouds to roam

Well, I'm crashing hard tonight
So you can take me to the head
I wish you could pick me up again
Pick me up after I'm down and dead [comments] => 1 [counter] => 170 [topic] => 31 [informant] => Exodus-On-Life [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 4 [ratings] => 1 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => StoryPoetry ) Your Poetry Dot Com - Down and Dead

You gave me a reason
A reason that I took with you inside
That reason took over everything
As in my head you shined with pride

Shaky when I'm away from you
And coarse is my entire world
Smooth me out with a dollar
Make me forget a stupid girl

You are the angel of a certain salvation
And you bumped it straight to the head
I think I'll turn the volume up
Strum you straight down and dead

Fix me up like you used to
When it was that dollar that you found
Whisper quietly with a locked door
Be quiet when we take you, no not a sound

I couldn't argue with you
I have no will of my own
It's like you shoot me straight to the night sky
Free amongst the clouds to roam

Well, I'm crashing hard tonight
So you can take me to the head
I wish you could pick me up again
Pick me up after I'm down and dead
