Every time I close my eyes
And lay my head down to sleep
I never turn the lights out
Cuz I feel there's someone watching me

Heads I live
Tails I die
A coin toss
Deciding when my life ends

A black sword thrust
Through my chest
I lie, dying on the battlefield
Will I die like the rest?

Heads I live
Tails I die
A coin toss
Deciding when my life ends

A steak knife tearing
Through my flesh
I struggle, dying on the street
Is this the end this time?

Heads I live
Tails I die
A coin toss
Decides the fate of my life

I've met the reaper
There's actually three
A blonde, brunette, and a red
A trinity

One alone is bad
They never come in twos
When they come in threes
It's okay, they'll go with you

Always
Every time I lay down to sleep
It's a coin toss
Deciding whether I'll wake up

So far, I've been lucky

This has a catchy scheme to it.. And I loved the ending.. It a sadistic you shouldn't be loving that ending way:P.. You'll have to excuse me.. My commmenting is going to be bright because I feel fantastic.. Back to the poem
