Counting the days
One by One,
A young man watches
His life go by,

9 days left,
till death knocks on his cell,
1 more day till the
little boys funeral.

A mind of hatred,
A mind of sickness,
He doesn't know why
He murdered the little boy.

Parents mourn,
They had a great loss,
The little boy is gone to heaven,
They pray towards the cross.

Murder happens every day,
No one really knows why,
But fate takes his hand,
And brushes it's people,
As it looks towards the sky.

The world counts the days,
Fate counts the people.
