If I could be an animal
I would be a bird
so I could fly from my worries and troubles
so I could sleep on clouds and befriend the stars
I would be a fish
so I could float along the river of happiness
so I could say play chase with the shark
I would be a lion
so I could play hide-n-seek with the zebras and giraffes
so I could rule my safari empire
I would be a monkey
so I could jump from branch to branch and feel the wind in my face
so I could race and fight with the chimpanzees
Murder
It's easy to do
but hard to accept
Some cry and
others bleed
There's always the victim
and the killer
Some do it in the name of justice
others for pleasure
and just cause they can
You can use a gun
or a knife
maybe even ordinary daily objects
It was self defense
It was cause of mental illness
It was cause you blacked out
You are now in prison
or your roaming among us
Whatever the reason
However you did
Wherever it was
Whenever it was
It was still murder
