What Doesn't Kill You

a collaboration by kriticool & Critical Mass

[font=Courier]What doesn�t kill you..
You will probably most likely try again
And then�try it again, and..again try, and
Sins, they just grin. The deadliest of sins
They suck draw and�they just pull you in
Serenading; right into your consciousness
Singing to you promising everything will be fine
One time�surely that�s enough, but is it?
These things in essence
They�re an attempt to replace something
Some items lost along your way
Things that you wanted to forever stay and
Having them flourish along life�s path
You�re bursting through with ambivalence
But then comes sin�s wrath

And that�s just the half�Do the math

You know what to do�knowing how it�s played
Familiar with the bed and knowing exactly how it�s made
Those comfortable sheets where them sins; an offer to get laid
Maybe the problem is your fears�NOT being afraid
Perhaps when you�re falling off; nodding off to sleep
Those deadening sins; yes..they do creep
Doing their own thing �keeping it real�
But you should�ve known, those sins; yes they DO steal
Encircling you with �Their Bestest of Friends
Should�ve known right then�it�s all about the sins
That Deadliest One on the mic; your cool singing buddy
The roasting of you; you come out looking nutty
Playing you for keeps; not to be trusted
Leaving you corrupted; stretched out & busted
Never the hero.. the math says zero [/font]

"What doesn�t kill you, will probably most likely try again" ... and that dear writers is a classic line from a well run piece .. Well done to both of you
