The future isn't what it used to be

I met some fast-easy women and some hard drinking men
Trying to drown the sorrow in me
I once had a lot but, the future is not
What it used to be...

The years they went by and I went steadily down
Till I had no place to go
Made the whisky lines by morning and the rum every night
Wrecking my body and soul...

And then I met a lady and in time she made me forget
Yes her love set me free
We ain't got a lot, but the future is not
What it used to be...

I never thought I could live to get over
For the past cut a hole deep in me
But there's a chance I'll be here a while longer
At least, now I wanna be...

That I know your sorrow and I know your pain
Don't you know, I know your need
I used to love you a lot, but the future is not
What it used to be...

" You haven't learnt anything until you learn monsters have nightmares too... " and I looked up to a gentleman sitting in the dark all along. The sliding blood made a drop eventually and fell in the pool of itself beneath my feet to break the silence. Bare feet, I walked towards him slowly in anticipation but what i dint noticed was the momentary pattern I was creating below in the warm, calm and still fluid. It was the darkest corner of that dark room and all I was able to see was the spark at the very tip of the cigarette he was smoking, which was teasing me more then anything by glowing a bit harder every time the gentleman took a puff. "You did great. Killing a child is not an easy task my friend !" he said. Everything I had done till this point of time flashed right after my eyes as he took another cruel break. He was the creator, the angle over my shoulder and the devil inside me.  I can feel myself disappearing and for a change this time ...
