All was silent in the night

and then the gunshot came.

The girls they screamed, the rest they ran

from the boy without a name.

He has no friends or parents

and hasn’t for a while.

In his town, he’s always known

as the boy without a smile.

And now he’s pulled the trigger

like we always knew he would

People wept and vultures stepped

right where the boy once stood.

Angry tears of hatred

lie in his lifeless eyes.

Who could live like he once did

in a life that you despise?

People walk by slowly

but they’ll walk by just the same

no-one cared if he lived or died

that boy without a name.
