Analysis of Deadly
Paul Weaver 1964 (Virginia)
When angry and feeling low.
Nothing ever seems to go your way.
Everything gone you have nothing at all.
And no place to go.
The pain is unbearable and strong.
As being around people with nothing to say.
Being lonely is killing me why so long.
Life so hard for most but easy for some.
Love is great if your lucky to find it.
When your heart isn't loved you stray.
Looking for love is a song.
When singing then you know.
Life is short cause time never stops.
But pain in one way or another will come.
At birth is when death starts knocking.
For most it is slow and for some its fast.
It makes no difference death comes to all.
