A guttural scream rips through the night
The sound of splattering blood hitting the ground
Bullets rip through the air
Passing through flesh and bone
Listen closely you can hear the groans
As life ebbs and flows onto the cold ground
Shattered lives scattered dreams
Crushed hopes all slipping down life's stream
Cars driving by
As mothers cry
Children once forgotten
Now lie dead and rotten
And he stands by the bridge
Tossing a gun boughten in an alley

The bad thing is that it happens all around the nation. It sounds just like war. I guess it kinda is.
