Last Sad Goodbye My Inner-Child

A bad man came 
when I was four 
he did bad things 
I couldn't find 
the door 

A bad man came 
when I was fourty one
this time he came 
with a mask and gun 

FLASH BACKS! FLASH BACKS! 
hells run a ground 
stay calm, stay cool, 
grandmas' spirit is a round 

I am older now - 
his wrath will save us both 

his crime exposed with 
my promise, and your oath
