I hear the shouts of an angry couple,

His fists bang the walls to stop the harm

Or is it to show his physical ability and scare the one that once loved him so much?

His jealousy rages like a wild animal

His eyes are bulging and veins are pulsing

She cries in vain

Doesn't want to feel the pain

Why can't he leave her alone?

More banging and shouting, screaming and crying

The police are called for worries of her safety

But before they arrive the noise is silenced

The crying has stopped.

Is she dead or is she alive?

Neither is right - she's killed him in fright.

She thought he was going to reign terror on her

So she picked up a knife

And plunged it through his heart

Now she is safe or so she thinks

But that's not right - she'll do time inside

For a crime of passion and self preservation

Not of love or hate just staying alive.
