In the night

In the night, a person dies.
there on the ground the person lies.
with their blood oozing out,
the people begin to hollar and shout.
As the voices begin to wither away,
some of the people are put at bay.
but not for long cus next thing you know, another person dies.
with the death, the family cries.
more and more when will it stop?
not right now because what people do will make their brain cells pop.
one, two, or maybe three.
i'm waiting for the time when the lord takes me.
i hope it's a long time from now,
so i can make my final bow.
one, two or maybe three.
from death i flee,
now and for all eternity
in the night a person dies!
