Suicide got you by
The ropes
But the noose
Was loose
Of course
You couldn't feel your feet
on the groundless floor
Flavor of the crime
Got you by surprise
Was it too horrible or bitter
For your taste
Or was the vengeance sweet
As the crystalline amphetamines
Got you in hazy thinking
And in a hurry
To **** somebody sweet
Sweetness comes to those who wait
Success is sweet
You're falling through trapdoor
Amidst the cheering crowd
Tearing apart your neck
At break neck speed
He didn't know
Law lays it's edicts
As it wipes out it's
Reprobrates
Out of their probity
Since rehabilitation is a politician's word
And law is the word
Justice took a turn for the worst
I hope your innocence
treats you right
in the letters you write
to those
closer to your
lies that have been kinda rehearsed
To hide your moniker in the times
For sons and your daughters
and brothers
Who share your remorse
