Wrong Place, Wrong Time
Wondering the aisles
In search of the perfect bassinet
Choosing between the wood and the metal
Selecting the perfect theme of it all
Then out of nowhere a loud bang
Silence then another pop
What in the world is going on?
Looking for protection, she hides from the sound
Behind the secound corner, who is that man?
What is that he is carrying? Is she in any danger?
Oh Lord please don't let him do anything
For inside the woman, a infant she was bearing
He holds her done, puts the gun to her head
Is anyone to witness this?, can anyone stop him
She tries to tell him that she is no threat
She won't tell anyone, just please let the baby live
But he doesn't seem to listen to her words
A loud shot and she's falls down to the floor
Her pulse slowly weakens, then she is gone
The baby's heart no longer can beat without her
The guy escapes with no harm
The cops have no trace
The lady's family has no comfort
All because wrong time, wrong place
