"Coward! "

Rating: 5.0


"Coward! "

I m very upset
The stage is set
I want to explode
To expel this load
The lump in my throat
Someone will be toast

I labour to breathe
I m punching screed
My knuckles bleed
Jackobus wants to be free
I want to scream
Vocal cords still

My heart is beating fast
The die has been cast
No going back now
This is the last vow
I feel psychopathic
No its sociopathic

Someone must pay
I got nothing to say
I see body bags
The police sad
Me against the earth
I smell death

There's sorrow
Tomorrow
Today i m tired
