Something happened

something happened I don't know what
A child was robbed a life to hijack the death of a dying old soul
Something happened I don't know what, a child lost battles but won his own war
a eye was tainted but a bright vision was cosmically painted

Something happened, I don't know what
Luck was exchanged for apologies of a hand laid for nostalgic cries that scream for youth rewind
A ball at the berth was crush to thrash the emotions of a fanatic misunderstood

Something happened, I don't know what
A family was torn apart slowly by the throws of evil darts
So strange the mystery leaving dark and dysfunctional parts
When a heart was broken, a child's chest got spasms

Something happened, a dream was chased but motives were replaced
a child's life was sacrificed because of the faults and duels of adults
A planned program of a series of events

Something happened, what was it?
Someone lied somewhere
the truth was shut down
and when it awoke souls broke out of hell
something happened if we can recapture
Something happened
led to a lot of injustice but trust this it was the birth of judicious virtues and vices.
There is a tragic reverb that creates dividing dissonance
Do be careful, the lepers of society are the ones who know hell best
so people try and say: "I know what you've been through".
And the reality is they don't know; yes they can empathise but the victim knows the pain most intimately and those who have suffered similar turmoils, ordeals or tragedies

The monstrosity of bitter hearts will reel you into a pit where you no longer have contact with your inner child. **** the hunger and enthusiasm so much that you don't want to play the music of your soul any longer. You just want no more songs because you are fed up and drained.
This is a danger that many people take for granted; you hurt someone so much that they only wait for their death-day.
Something really bad happens and the masses remain silent. So where are the voices and once they sound, to whose tune are they singing?
