Why Me?

It sucks but oh well...
Blood fell down from my head
Down on the ground from being shot
I'm sorry I couldn't say goodbye
I'm sorry I didn't say I loved you
Just before I went out that door
But now it’s just simply too late

Police say I'm gonna die
The strangers around me start to cry
Then a tear falls down from my eye

Life was rather short
But it just became shorter for me
I'm now crying alone
In this dark place full of unknown people

The pain is now unbearable
I feel like I'm having a billion knives
Stroked in my chest
Why did this have to happen to me?
But I guess the answer I'll never know

I can feel my heart beat slowing down
Just like when I almost drowned
I can barely breathe
Soon I'll be nothing but a faded memory
