JUST ONE 

Just takes one
To fuck it up
It just won’t work
No matter what.

You try your best
Not good enough
They’ll take you down
They’re cold, they’re tough.

Standing by
Got eyes on you
Taking notes
A page or two.

The trap is set
You’re unaware
You’ve been deceived
You thought they cared.

Quick to sink
Their claws in you
Who knew just what
They planned to do?

Out in the cold
There all alone
They couldn’t  wait
Till you were gone. 

Just takes one
To steal your joy
Their mission clear
Seek and destroy.
