and for what gamble on farce is it these dice that I
am throwing
a walk with a man and gun in the dead of dark
with no possible chance of ever fully knowing
is it not natural that anger and indignation are
slipping and swiftly showing
fear races up my heart but my breath is evenly
flowing
the cold slap at my back is only the wind
blister fully blowing
you have forcefully lead me to the corner of my sparse
existence
my blood boils my eyes remain intense
this situation is uncalled for so I barter for any
shred of common sense
in the aftermath of my demise
everyone will hear not my version of the truth
but my murderer's lies
for no one can hear the side of the victim who does
not even know for what it is he dies
I hear the shot
I hurt badly
then slip slowly into eternal sleep
while my murderer
my wallet he decides to keep
and with my money
another gun for more killings he goes out and buys
what else do you want me to say
I know something
just this
Thanks For Nothing Guys!...................
