I'm surrounded, each doorway covered
|
by at least twenty men.
|
And they're going to take me and throw me in prison.
|
I ain't coming back again.
|
|
When I was younger, handsomer and stronger,
|
I felt like I could do anything.
|
But all of these people making all these faces
|
didn't seem like my kith and kin.
|
|
Colin Kincaid from the twelfth grade,
|
I guess you could say he was my best friend.
|
He lived in a big tall house out on Westfall
|
where we would hide when the rain rolled in.
|
|
We went out one night and took a flashlight,
|
out with these two girls Colin knew from Kenwood Christian.
|
One was named Laurie, that's what the story
|
said next week in the Guardian.
|
|
And when I killed her it was so easy
|
that I wanted to kill her again.
|
I got down on both of my knees and...
|
She ain't coming back again.
|
|
Now, with all these cameras focused on my face,
|
you'd think they could see it through my skin.
|
They're looking for evil, thinking they can trace it,
|
but evil don’t look like anything.
