Sitara means morning star, so yeah... black lights... sitara... oxymoron... you get it. This is part one of a story I'm writing in song form. I titled it like a CoCa song because I figured that was the best way.
"Listen up, honey, and listen well...
nothing we say leaves this room."
Tonight, here, now, moaning expletives from wall to wall,
he came to me,
"listen good boy, you're a quick thinker,"
(Oh, if only I could have thought quicker)
"just a quick look and, boom, he's dead."
I can't do it, I won't
"no choice, son, pull back the bolt"
(I dread the day I took my first shot)
Timing was key, with the second hand of the clock...
"Spent the last 10 years in limbo, kid, don't you see me?
I'm dead! I'm dead..."
"Not dead enough for me, too easy, too quick...
no amount of suffering will ever equal the pain you caused me"
I dread the day I took my first shot
(can't you see me?)
Timing was key, with the second hand of the clock
(i'm dead)
"No time to explain kid, be done, be quick...
be done, be quick...
be done, be quick..."
My dear friends, it seems this is how your nightmare ends.

here's some notes, the song is from a first person perspective, so if you think something should be in quotation marks but its not, its because the narrator is saying it. there's more to explain, but just don't ask any questions until i post the last one of these songs up, i'll post another topic with the last one to explain it all. you may not like it, and there's probably a lot of things wrong with it, but i didn't change it because i was surprised at how my ideas were flowing on paper.
