Take My Chances (Free verse) by forsaken
I look around and wonder where have the angels Gone they're missing as each one comes up mangled Their bloody sawed off limbs stacked in a pile Like a deer hit by a truck guts are spread out for miles You see the wildlife chewing on their bones It's ringing but no one answer the phone Must have checked the caller id and seen god was calling Most likily wanting to know why all his angels are falling Can you tell me what am I suppose to do When going forward doesn't matter cause I ain't got you I try to lay my head down to sleep at night But my heart is restless like it's in a fight There's a war going on inside me for love Cause it's been touched by the most beautiful dove The world isn't safe for such things Yet I'd take my chance even if it means it breaks and bends You got to see what is going on in the world It'll knocked you back and put your head in a whirl By the time it stops spinning you won't know your age You're safer locked up with a hungry tiger in a cage Then you are being young and in love these days It's like as soon as they fall in it begins to fade What hope is there when the ones you trust Cause you to spend the rest of your life looking for lust Can you tell me what am I suppose to do When going forward doesn't matter cause I ain't got you I try to lay my head down to sleep at night But my heart is restless like it's in a fight There's a war going on inside me for love Cause it's been touched by the most beautiful dove The world isn't safe for such things Yet I'd take my chance even if it means it breaks and bends Well I don't know about you but I won't live without it Sure that might mean my heart takes another heavy hit But if it's at the cost of finding out if you're the one Then I say I'll been there loving you till you're done I'm not ready to walk away from from the sweetest dream I have ever dreamt till I know it's not what it seems Someday soon I hope to see our hands together If I could hold you I'd want that moment to last forever Can you tell me what am I suppose to do When going forward doesn't matter cause I ain't got you I try to lay my head down to sleep at night But my heart is restless like it's in a fight There's a war going on inside me for love Cause it's been touched by the most beautiful dove The world isn't safe for such things Yet I'd take my chance even if it means it breaks and bends And I'll take my chances....... ........................Cause all I feel in my heart is you And I'll take my chances....... ........................Cause all I feel in my heart is you And I'll take my chances....... ........................Cause all I feel in my heart is you
