Sad Story

In a town without a clock
Sounds of screaming then a gun shot
Panic sturs, call the cops
One by one bodies drop
For a moment time will stop

In a town without a light
People stur and people fight
People scared to come out at night

In a town without glory
Begins a tale of a sad story

When will the story end!?
