The crying onion
Why did you
Why did you act that way
Why did you eat and never thought
Why did you change the plate
You didn’t know i saw you
And interchanged it again
Why did you
I thought you were a friend
A friend that i trusted the most
For my heart was forever settled
Until that very day of terror
When i went for a short call
What! I was amazed
It couldn’t be you
A portion of poison
Deep in my food
My food of life
My food of destiny
Why did you
I saw you
My eyes were open
Why did you
Why did you
