choices two
I leave for you
pronunciation,
you decide
do you refuse
to be used
or allow you
to be used
like refuse
and tossed
about the
place.

I can help
if you ask
when I
knock on
the door but
you ignore
that help stands
outside your
door

his dark heart
dark from the start
is not what
you deserve,
I've tried to sway
your use
of excuses,Β in his
defense, his parents
his childhood, misspent
at your expense

how many more
times will the po-po
call before you may
fall a victim as you
refuse what little
we have to keep
you from being
discarded like
refuse again

he may be a mountain
but he is no man,
escape while you can

signed
your friends
