The Lost Soul

"While death consumes us" immediately makes me think of Donnie.

THE LOST SOUL

He lost out on too many today's

Missed out on friends along the way

In his life the past was self-imposed

He walked his path with yesterday's ghosts

Dreams were replaced with nightmares

He saw scorn in people's stares

The heartbreak he could not avoid

He lived his life as paranoid

Escape was there had he reached out

But his preference was a life of doubt

A bottle was his only friend

He paid his dues with shots of gin

They saw him and immediately turned away

He'd driven them off to their
dismay

It's hard for loved ones to intervene

In a life that's lived in Halloween
