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
