Began to Cry

Walking quickly,

Out of the corner.

Into the streets,

Bypass the loner.

Bypass the loner.

Bypass the loner.

I was walking quickly,

Out of the corner.

To the streets

To the streets, I was walking by.

Saw the man in his disguise,

He noticed me once, he noticed me twice.

That's when I came to realize.

That was the man who held me tight,

By the throat, and began to cry.

Began to cry,

Began to cry.

He wouldn't let go,

And I began to cry.

I asked him why,

I asked him why.

He couldn't say no,

That I should die.

Moving swiftly,

Out of that corner.

Into the streets,

Met the owner.

I met the owner.

Met the owner.

In the bakery,

By the corner.

I cried to this man,

And he denied.

He told me my story,

Was one, big lie.

One big lie that a breath has take,

One big lie that a breath has waste.

I began to cry,

Began to cry.

He told me so,

And I began to cry.

He didn't know,

I was about to die.

But he told me so,

And I began to cry.

Breathing heavily,

Ran to the parlor.

I saw the barber,

Talking to my mother.

Talking to my mother.

Talking to my mother.

Breathing heavily,

Ran from the corner.

Mother asked why why why,

I cried into her arms.

It felt so right.

I told her a man,

Gave me a fright.

Who grabbed my throat,

And held me tight.

He looked into my eyes,

And said I was going to die.

But I ran away,

I didn't want to fight.

Didn't want to fight,

With the man and his knife.

I broke free,

And ran for my life.

Mother couldn't see this horrible sight,

So she told me I was living in one big lie.

One big lie that a breath has take,

One big lie that a breath has waste.

I screamed at her and denied,

No one couldn't believed,

Why I cried.

So I hide,

And began to cry.

So I hide,

And began to cry.

In the corner I asked why why why,

Why people frowned upon me and denied.

The man was back and told me my fate,

I made a mistake and I should die.

I should die…

Oh I should die…

I should die…

Oh I should die…

But woke up and felt life was taken away,

Instead the nightmare took my breath away. 

I was wide awake in the night,

And that was when I began to cry.
