Warrior's Heart (original Poem, that I turned into a song).
Evil whispers driving me insane
with the devil's curse inside my brain
the fires burning but I've felt worse
a warrior's heart will break this curse
Chains of doubt they weigh me down
but I can swim, I will not drown
I'll fight the devil, ignite his flame
but I will not let him take my name
A warrior's heart will break this curse
screams will echo but I've had worse
my hands they grip the endless pit
there's a storm inside, but I will not quit
Every demon haunts his prey
and shadows claw whilst they play
masks of fear they try to claim
but a warrior's heart won't play their game
The devils laugh, it cuts my soul
but I will rise from his twisted hole
I'm a warrior, can't you tell
I've clawed my way back from hell
A warrior's heart will break this curse
screams will echo but I've had worse
my hands they grip the endless pit
there's a storm inside, but I will not quit
I'll rise from ashes' I'll rise from gloom
and carve my name upon his tomb
the flames can dance as I depart
I defeated the devil with a warrior's heart.

"Any last words, cowboy?" "None you'd understand, sodbuster." "Funny. That's Marshall Sodbuster to you. But I meant some last nugget that would help us in the adjudication of the myriad offenses counted against you and your gang. I wasn't asking for penitence."
