Familiar faces crowding,
Lives spoiled day after day,
The crackling siren sounding,
Trying to keep us at bay,
The tension around us rising,
So thick, you can cut with a knife,
Darting eyes that are sizing,
Cut short was another quick life,
The line that was so long,
Is now just nearly a dot,
Someone humming a song,
Just a matter of time until, rot.
