Lonely Nights
I sit in my living room by the dim light
on this lonely night
watching the fire burn
listen to the dryer turn
Wondering what my roommates dream
hoping they will see tomorrow brings new day and offering
but for me its today this lonely night
what will it bring me a scare and a fright
Then bust in the cops with a gun pointed at my head
yelling "FREEZE SON OR YOU'RE GOING TO DROP DEAD"
I drop to my knees and put my hands to the sky
and cry aloud "I don't want to die"
The cop screams " Where's the body and drugs kid
you know what you did"
"No I don't sir what did I do
to disapprove you"
"Nothing" he softly whispers
as he pulls the trigger
BANG BANG
two bullet shots to my head
all of a sudden I awake from the dead
The cops were gone and no one in sight
back to this lonely night
