Venus
This world is a terrifying place
So many crimes
That goes on
As we go about our day
We lay in sun as they lay in their grave
No one deserves that fate
The remorse comes about a little bit too late
Tristyn Bailey killed in cold blood with nothing but need
That night they lost their beautiful little girl to a boy who had greed
We say today he hadn’t known
Why sympathize with him
When he knew full well
Capable of stabbing her 114 times
TereseAnn Morre
Killed by her husband
His statement stands
This time remorse never came undone
Protecting the children
Oh what a blessing
Causing them more than trauma
Loosing their mother and their father
No one deserves that fate
Seeing the children was not the only motive
So many more cases so why not share
In time we learn that this world is not made of rainbows
It suffocates you till you can’t handle it anymore.
Lessons are something we need to learn
As kids, we all had a spark
But that spark is gone
We try to hide behind the fear
Not listening like nothing is here
Nothing is going to happen they say
Oh what a pity
This world is becoming more and more like Venus each day
Some filled with toxic gas
Others have hidden water So far down not visible to the eye
The few who are none live on their own planet
Better than this one
This world is a terrifying place
So many crimes
That go on
As we go about our day
We lay in sun as they lay in their grave
No one deserves that fate
The remorse comes about a little bit to late
Tristyn Bailey killed in cold blood with nothing but need
That night they lost their beautiful little girl to a boy who had greed
We say today he hadn’t known
Why sympathize with him
When he knew full well
Capable of stabbing her 114 times
The remorse he gave was none
TereseAnn Morre
Killed by her husband
His statement stands
This time remorse never came undone
Protecting the children
Oh what a blessing
No one deserves that fate
In time we learn that this world is not made of rainbows
It suffocates you till you can’t handle it anymore.
Lessons are something we need to learn
As kids, we all had a spark
But that spark is gone
We try to hide behind the fear
Not listening like nothing is here
Nothing is going to happen they say
Oh what a pity
This world is becoming more and more like Venus each day
Some filled with toxic gas
Others have hidden water So far down not visible to the eye
The few who are none live on their own planet
Better than this one
