Fallen Man

It started like a normal day
Shower, breakfast and then out
The sun shone on a winter morning
As he caught the bus to work

Thoughts about the next hours
Some trouble was ahead
He left the bus and it hit him
It? s much too late to change your fate

He left behind his family
A child at the age of five
It? s crying in her mother? s arms
Too young to understand

Dead on the street
I saw the man fall
His heart stopped to beat
For no reason at all

Dead on the street
His life was too short
Now a note on a sheet
Dangles on his toe

He lived his life much too fast
So he died before his time
All the warnings he ignored
Until it was too late
