Justice

The events
That happened
In an instant
Change lives
The truth
To be seen
Hides
Behind Lies
Go down
And deep
Into
The dirty pool
The water
So deep
Only
For a fool
Bring her
To me
A crocodile
Dundee
She's wild and free
Someone to be
Cared for
Loved
And who are they ?
Seeking meat
A cat in heat
The law
It seems
Holds us free
Holds us free?
How could that be?
The trust
The ire
The unknown
Do you know,
When I'll be home ?
Be with me
I'm scared
To be free
They will come
And get me
My home isn't safe
A blade
A snake
They run the streets
They gnaw on me
Hold me down
Hold me back
Let's see if we can find
Another crack
Beat him to
A whole new scream
Keep it going
Keep it mean
Be fair they said
To the unknown
That cannot be done
Not until we are shown
