Scroll Of The Missing Persons:

Can you hear the frightened voices,
Crying out in the dark of night,
Screams for mercy go unanswered,
While the victim suffer their plight!

Once again the heart of an innocent soul,
Has been snatched up from our streets,
To face the demons in a monsters world,
While the neighbourhood quietly sleeps!

"The Scroll" displays the many names,
Of those who've been swooped upon,
Unable to escape the evil claws,
And its poisonous venom that runs!

The list of our missing continues to grow,
And depending on your wealth or fame,
Will determine the efforts to find you,
If you are spotless or hold a good name!

Too many times our Law Enforcement,
Fail with their initial reaction,
They'll see certain case's as "runaways",
Depending on their own satisfaction!

We cannot imagine the numbers,
Of those who would be alive today,
Had the law followed the criteria,
Acting quickly and not turn away.
