Nothing Good To Gain

Darkness kills the light at times

But it never dulls my pain.

I’d like to say I’ve tried my best

But I’ve nothing good to gain.

Trails of tears left behind me

With your name on every one

Kept me for reaching for the sword

But didn’t deter me from the gun.

Now I stand on this empty road

Neither of us can flee

The only question that will remain

Is do I shoot you.. Or do I shoot me?
