Suburban Legend

blood splattered on the windshield,wiped it off
with a cracked open tear bottle,seeing something wrong
cleared the bloodshot eyes,rolled down the power window
knowing not what he was in for,saw her unconscious
with skin glowing in betrayal scars
asked not who she was,rushed to the doctor
he adopts her in his arms,kept her warm
felt her drenched,that's when he realized the storm
that was smudging her eye liner
got in the patient line,"got a name sir?" "i doubt it"
said he found her by the roadside,nurse called the cops,
wouldn't wana let the con slide,"hey stop"
skidded off left the poor child
hoping to see her soon but he's gotta go now
got his own problems,left a secret note
in his jacket blanketing the sleeping beauty,and she woke up

light years from her last recollection
lightheaded from both the poison and the injection
from the nurse,she came through
like a hearse in the afternoon traffic
hit the red light district police asked for details
frustrated they were as she could only speak braille
but as they seek help to figure her fingers out
she sneaked the hell out,drugged the nurse so she wouldn't shout
took the next bus to the suburbs
single track mind on a mission but her face read 'love hurts'
got at his place,creepy how she knew
like destiny did a song called this is how we do
doorbell rang,he came defenseless
cupid-shot through the heart,'POW' left him breathless
she took out the note,it read 'you kinda look familiar'
well he raped and left her for dead in the past life,"now we're equal"
