The Tradgedy She Wrote

Everyone has these beautiful stories Whether it be of their family in reality Or with that prince in their fantasies But no one has that tragedy That one sad story where there was a death and a suicide Or the prince ran off to be with someone else and the princess left alone There can never be a happy ending Without that perfect twist in fate Don’t worry I’ll stop the dreading I’ll write a story where you were too late Let’s start at the beginning when everything was still alright Together every night and the only thing being watched was the T.V. The only thing being consumed was unhealthy food And the only thing being played was hide n seek How could this possibly turn into something as evil as murder Well honey we’ve only just begun There can never be a happy ending Without that perfect twist in fate Don’t worry I’ll stop the dreading I’ll write a story where you were too late Time passes and the friends you once had are all gone You don’t remember what happened and you’ve lost the ability to even care They drag your drunken body to a dark alley You’re beaten and they leave you for dead revenge for what you once did to them The last words you heard are bone chilling “There’s no sympathy for the dead, not where you’re going.” And you’re deceased There can never be a happy ending Without out that perfect twist of fate Don’t worry I’ll stop the dreading I’ll write a story where you were too late
