As I came closer it was then that I realized
This one's not evil
Just lazy enough to even be terrorized
It's clear he bares no real ill will
But the more you watch it's clear
He does wrong bittings and stores up guilt
He's a wonder unlike anything I've ever seen
Like a child in ignorance, he lives carefree
I wonder what took you down that route
Was it yourself or did someone at you shout?
How is it that when you have no real ill intention
You can't pay your own actions some attention
You wear those metals and hear whatever they have to say
In one ear and out the other so that you can continue to play
Do you not realize how many are lying and left forgotten?
How papers you sign can lead to families destroyed and bodies rotten?
If I could just get close enough to have a word
Support creative writers by reading their stories on Royal Road, not stolen versions.
Maybe I could understand him some more
To tell him that what he's doing is wrong
How he'd look back at his actions wishing them to be gone
Some people amongst the crowd his car rides
Look at him with pure terror
Others giving looks that wish he dies
Impervious to both he simply smiles back
The first getting confused
The ladder knives wanting his throat to hack
And then as I try to run back into the dark alleyways
The worst happens and I fall into his presence before he ends his day
I wonder what took you down that route
Was it yourself or did someone at you shout?
How is it that when you have no real ill intention
You can't pay your own actions some attention
You wear those metals and hear whatever they have to say
In one ear and out the other so that you can continue to play
Do you not realize how many are lying and left forgotten?
How papers you sign can lead to families destroyed and bodies rotten?
If I could just get close enough to have a word
Maybe I could understand him some more
To tell him that what he's doing is wrong
How he'd look back at his actions wishing them to be gone
His own followers advising him to keep it down
As he shakes them off
Seeing their words as something profound
One glance at me and he takes a second look
Realizing that I'm not from around here
He blindly gifts me money as my hand he shook
"Es ist OK! Ich sehe, dass du nicht von hier bist! Willkommen in Deutchland!"
I feel warmth in his weird words
Somehow now I only want to know more
