Swing

take a bow

take a seat

take a swing

waltzing on the

ballroom that is life

and its story

of life and death,

acting and responding,

receiving and giving,

crime and punishment,

and

murder.

take a swing

blood rising

thoughts intensifying,

choose your path

and run with it

like a convicted killer

wanted for dead,

like a batter at home

plate ready to gun

for third,

go where you will

but don't cross me.

take a swing

don't back down

don't fall out

find where you may lead

because

it's too late

to back out

now,

it's too late

to back out now dear.
