Is it like this a soldier feels?
When he hears his enemies squeals.
When the bullet hits their chest
Splashing blood over the rest
This incredible pain and screams
Do they fill the soldier’s dreams?
Is it like this when a killer kills?
Does it give him any thrills?
His victims begging for their life.
Showing no mercy with his knife.
Blood running down his chest
Is it for the victim’s best?
Is it that what a doctor sees?
His patient lying with his diseases
Seeing how he fights and crawls
In his attempt to survive it all.
Can the doctor heal the pain?
Or will he let him die in vain.
Is it this how a doomed man feels?
As he hears the guards step on his heels
Knowing death is behind the next wall
Will it go fast and the pain be small?
A shock or a sting, will end it
And nobody will remember it.
Is it like this my words felt?
Leaving marks like a welt.
Cutting through the tender skin
Watching his life run out in sin
Will he hate me like the others do?
Or just forget how close we grew.
Is it like this when you nearly killed someone?
Your chests tight as your feelings come undone
Your heart beating as if it wants to burst
But not of love, for the reason you feel cursed
Nothing you do will make this ever right
Even if you meant it good, you lost before you fight
