a knife

 A knife

Saved my life 

Being wielded 

By a doctor 

In the operating room 

God was going to kill me 

Lo, those many years ago.

And kill me, He will. 

The way of man I'll go. 

 If I had died so long ago 

It would have broke a mother's heart 

Since I had nearly killed us both 

To get here from the start 

It was all of God's twisted plot 

Kill, Kill, KILL 

So some can 

live, live, live.
