Road of Destruction

Am I not in the path of destruction?
It seems like I'm coming to the end of the road
I look down and see an opening up ahead
The light ahead doesnt make me happy
It doesnt make me speed up or slow
I know its there, but I just don't want to go

I start to think of why I'm here again
The look on your face as I held you
You died in my arms, yet you still were smiling
My anger was fierce at your final breath
I let you down into the grass, already stained a crimson
And I did something I shouldn't have

I raced to his truck, and yanked him onto the road
He fell hard into the shattered glass and metal shards
I began to release my pain into every blow
Showing him where all murderers go
And with one last final punch
I let him onto the path of destruction

Closer I come now...
The light brighter than ever before
Waves of heat reach my solemn face
I stop at the edge of darkness
Finally afraid at my realization
Here I walk on the path of destruction

The years after the unforgetable crash
I sit in the bed of my cell
And I hear the clangs of metal cups
As they come to lead me on the path
Lost in memories of that day I follow them
And they lead me to the beginning of the end

The chair, seemed to call to me
And I sat with wonder, unrealizing
I looked out at the people who watched
And in the back row, there she was
Her face with the same beautiful smile
And finally a tear fell from my eye
As I stepped onto the road of destruction
