Bomb


10 minutes to react Time to face some facts Watching everyone I love in pain Seeing happiness fade Everyone he comes in contact with turns and runs away He thinks he can manipulate people to have his way He thinks he is big & bad He doesn’t see all he has People make excuses because of this, that and the other They only see the outside and nothing further They so easily give him away Wonderin’ is it fate 5 minutes left This is not a test Watching the scene, knowing exactly nothing is going to change Today just seems the same as yesterday All the time is gone Watching everything blow up, now everything is messed up, wrong But knowing this is just the beginning and there is more to come
