Illegal things

by The Poetic Child   Nov 15, 2005


Running in the dark
trying to run away
this is the life,
we go through it everyday

on the news you hear it
kids played with a gun
2 girls were shot
does that seem fun?

lives being taking
how could you live with the guilt
you killed a young girl
the pain justs gets built

girls are getting raped
from older guys
girls getting slapped
like there bug flys

is this a way to live?
is this who we are?
how can we live this?
who's to go far?

taking drugs
and getting high
stealing money
the jury you lie

drunk driving
putting everyones life at stake
why would u do it?
its there lives you take

this cant be life
we gotta change our way
let me be the voice
be the one to say

Stop that nonsense
it gets you no where
killing other people
life is no fair

you cant name one thing
that this can make you smarter
it cant get you anywhere
life just hits you harder

so I'm saying it write now
install this in your head
stop doing stupid things
some else can do it, and now your dead......

*Dedicated to any people who have lost there loved ones because of drugs, drunk diving, rape or any other of those illegal things*

    Your grammer needs some editing, but it all flows along nicely.
