Scene of A Tragedy

Scene of A Tragedy

 

I saw the flowers beside the road

That marked the end of a story told

And as my heart played a sad melody

I beheld the scene of a tragedy

 

It is her turn with the kids for a while

So into her leased car they all did pile

The remnants of what was once a family

Is now just the scene of a tragedy

 

The newspaper told of a horrible disease

That rocked a family to its knees

Now gathered together at the cemetery

To commemorate the scene of a tragedy

 

He had fought his battles for so very long

And tried so hard for others to be strong

But then he laid out a plan so carefully

His room the scene of a tragedy

 

He snorted it just to be one of the crew

Not realizing what it was going to do

Until one day he overdosed accidentally

And died at the scene of a tragedy

 

It was just a buzz he thought that night

And climbed behind the wheel of plight

Then plowed into a car so horrifically

His lonely cell the scene of a tragedy
