Profiling

A mother father and child are siting in a room
Everyone looking at each other with such pity, and gloom
a fire was started but no one is to blame
everyone keeps stabbing looks at each other
yelling it was you start telling the truth
Finally they agree to talk this out
no one will be in trouble if we ever get out
we will count this as an accident if it never happens again 
but lets all come clean lets all be friends
Okay the father says maybe I am to blame
I am always working and cursing your names,
there is to much responsibility, to many that rely on me,
but as far as that fire goes I swear it was not me!
The child looked and stared as he smiled 
he said Don't point your fingers at me 
All I know is I was sound asleep 
Until I got dragged out of my nice warm bed.
The mother glanced away as they both pointed fingers her way 
Tears poured her eyes as she began to speak
since the day I said I do,
I admit I started the fire,
A fire that started inside my heart making me weak
I thought throughout each day that we would love each other
and it would never go way
And once child when I had you I had been blue 
forgetting the fire inside that I started and will not hide
But since my world had been crumbling 
And no one kept their promise to me
I admit it was me,
yes me I started the fire since you both no longer love me.
I hope they lock me up and throw away the key
Then I can cry all I want because I am weak inside
after her words she saw both of them cry
as they began to form there words
the both got close enough to whispers words of goodbye
they were sure she was going to jail
and before these two both promised they would not bail
But once the officer came in 
with hand cuffs in his hands,
the two men fell to there hands and knees pleading oh please
do not take her take me,
she is so right,
I always start the fights,
I wanted someone to get hurt
but instead it worked in reverse
I should be punished for my crime
I am the one to blame it was me who started the flame
The officer laughed and giggled,
As he looked at them and said you been bailed out
I am just here to tell you they are calling your names.
