Lake St. Resident Perspective


Sirens scream into the night

Melted into the cries of people 

Shattered glass on black paved roads 

Littered like stars 

Heart in thoughts of fear

Stinging beds of lies 

Try and try to spread the truth 

Recognize what you destroyed 

So the rally screams and shouts 

The fight of unjust 

Among the galaxy of glass 

People fight a peaceful fight 

While the night burns on to ash
