Party Pills

My heart begins to fail, My feet race along the ground, My body is drenched in a chilled sweat, I scream but don't make a sound, I feel my body tremble, As I frantically try to run, I can hear him coming closer, I hope he doesn't have a gun, There's a warmth on my shoulder now, I can feel his quickened breath, His rough hand connects with my arm, I can feel the shadows of death, All of the light has disappeared, More darkness has taken its place, My body's limp, worn out and weak, Death has finally won this race, But my soul lives on in heaven, To bring justice to those who kill, Vulnerable teenagers like me, By selling them party pills, I got given those party pills, To try with a special friend, Being a fool, I took a few, But death caught me in the end.
