Man's ruin

Here's a lyric I wrote a whilst ago
 
Man’s Ruin

 
Broken heart and broken mind,
I’ve nothing to loose and nothing to hide.
Empty mind and empty soul.
Ain’t goin’ nowhere I got nowhere to go.
You’ve No hope, no dreams, no aspiration,
You just sit and wait for the next temptation.
 
Pent up aggression and unfulfilled desire,
Make us want to get much higher.
Too many good times and too much booze
We’re game to win but we always lose.
We live to gamble. We live to drink.
Got nothing better to do why should we think.
 
              When your hate turns to anger and your belly fills with fire
              When your body fills with urges and your head fills with desire
              When you can’t resist the gamble and you always go under.
              You live, live by Man’s Ruin.
 
You offer so little and I always want more.
You can’t fulfil my needs; to you I’m a whore.
Don’t want no commitments, don’t want no ties.
We don’t like the truth so we fill you with lies
I’m everyone’s demon but no I’m man’s fool.
You’re my puppet you’re my tool.
 
You know you can’t resist a wager
Even though the odds are always in my favour.
Tonight your mine and I’m your desire
Lets play together and get a little higher
Want to take the poison got to flirt with danger.
But you want it all; you want it now not later.
 
              When your hate turns to anger and your belly fills with fire
              When your body fills with urges and your head fills with desire
              When you can’t resist the gamble and you always go under.
              You live, live by Man’s Ruin.

Broken heart and broken mind,
I’ve nothing to loose and nothing to hide.
Empty mind and empty soul.
Ain’t goin’ nowhere I got nowhere to go.
You’ve No hope, no dreams, no aspiration,
You just sit and wait for the next temptation.

             The Drink, the Women, the Game,
             The Drugs, the Men, this life of pain
             They say it’s not the destination but the path we take
             And in this life of pleasure we’re damned to man’s ruin
