The Obligation of a Battered Soul

I'm staring down the barrel of this gun
Knowing his mistakes can't be undone
No regrets will flood through my mind
For in this life, you can't press rewind

Mutilation.
Intoxication.
Motivation.
Obligation.

Staring out through my glassy eyes
Ignoring the sound of his shrill cries
His frantic pleading falls on deaf ears
I'm about to confirm his worst fears

Screaming.
Dreaming.
Pleading.
Bleeding.

Static fills my head as I pull the trigger
I watch silently as his eyes grow bigger
Scarlet rivers run down his ghostly face
I saw his skin burst like a fragile vase

Complete.
Defeat.
Delete.
Retreat.

This man will never hurt another soul
Killing him had been my main goal
I hope he's with Satan, burning in hell
My glassy eyes were his last farewell
