Madness

If you play you may pay
So be careful when you do
Life can be so cruel
Dealt a hand of death
Drugs and sex can move you
Into a new plateau
Watch out for the sign of the day.

People contracting AIDS all the time
Innocence forgetting the stance
Playing with fire can kill you
Slowly your brittle bones rag
No known cure for dishonor
Can you really take the chance?
Ignorance can be so sublime.

Children who never had sex
Contract it, herding it unknowingly
It's a shame to watch them die
Innocent and shunned they must be
So protect yourself and others
Make sure your children live
Protection is the key to the text.

Madness quits for no man
No one should go out that way
Things we cannot nearly explain
Madness of society regrets
Incidents we cannot decipher
They shouldn't be death's brand.
