Red luscious roses on the gravestone. On my gravestone. I love the color red, it's the color of fresh blood when it first oxidizes through the air. Roses remind me of life and how easily life can be taken away by the thorns on the stem. No one knows why I did what I did, they'd need to find out who I am to fit the missing puzzles together. A mystery no one is willing to solve. You'd be surprised who I'd turned out to be. The one you least expect it to be. Keep your friends close but your enemies closer. In this case keep your enemies close but keep your secrets hidden in a closet, only reveal them when every grain of sand in the hourglass has hit rock-bottom. One at a time the secrets will topple on top of one another and when everyone has had their fair share of rollercoaster rides. Game over.
----------------------------------
Secrets. Don't we all have them? What started off as an innocent game, ended in a tragic accident. Are you willing to find out who killed who? Be careful. Stay silent. Game over.
