Two Wrongs Without a Right
A mistake does not make the person when the person makes a mistake
Someone can kill another, does not always make them a murderer
Anybody could rob another person, though it does not brand them a thief
Anybody can be accused for being in the wrong place at the wrong time
Some mistakes are pointed to another in order to make their own feel better
While the push every nose in their mistake like a dog who make one on the carpet
Some mistakes are nit always a conscious decision, instead an anger induced blackout
Leaving the stain, and the brand of anothers mistakes
The murderer could have been just having a bad day
Or maybe caught the robber with his hand in his pockets
Creating a blackout, causing his mistakes to be unleashed
Soon after rolling the robber up in the carpet where he was constantly being reminded
His mistakes got worse as the stains turned into red, like his eyes
After the blackout seeing how bad it looked, believing nobody would believe it was defense
Carrying on his back his last mistake and a chain, ties himself down to the robber
Jumping into to lake to drown his memories, and fixing his mistake
