Wrong place, Wrong time

Bewildered eyes stare at me.
He can't believe what he's done.
In a moment of rage and despair
he's taken the life of his friend.


Alcohol intoxicated him
party goers encouraged him.
His friend brought a gun
only to land in his hands.


Blood spills from the chest
of his old friends dead body.
Friends since diapers
only to be torn apart.


It wasn't supposed to be this way.
What they had encouraged
they now fear.
They despise the monster they created.


The hostess can't believe her eyes.
She only just told them to go outside.
Her fourteenth birthday ended in chaos.
How could it have gone so wrong?


They called a truce
so they could party.
Only some couldn't
follow the command.


It's another day
in the city of Snakes and Fishes.
Just another gang war
gone horribly right.


So now his bodies gone
to the cemetery tonight
the rival gang is on a quest
to even the score.


This cycle will never end.
