Green eyes on me like a predator,

"You said I'd be okay."

Cornered like prey,

"Tommy, you promised."

I tried to be honest,

"Tommy, I'm scared."

He was not prepared,

"I didn't want to lie."

He must comply,

"Please, I don't want to die."

No tears to dry,

"1... 2... 3... 4... 5..."

I will survive,

"6... 7... 8... 9... 10..."

It all comes to an end,

"Tommy, you said it would be okay."

It wasn't meant to be this way.
