Never

\nIt’s always wrong to take a life, all killings are a curse
\nYou should not take a gift you cannot give
\nBut there may be a circumstance not killing’s even worse
\nIt’s not an easy thing to learn to live<\/p>\n
Sometimes a life becomes too hard, and dying’s all to do
\nBut times like these are terrible indeed
\nRemember if you have to choose your life belongs to you
\nBut claiming someone else’s is just greed<\/p>\n
How can you tell a man you killed, so sorry my mistake
\nOr give him twenty quid to put it right
\nYou’ll find that once his blood is spilled there’s nothing left to take
\nThe other facts will vanish out of sight<\/p>\n
So never think that it’s OK, it’s someone else not me
\nAnother time the victim could be you
\nThe man or woman that is dead should have the right to be
\nAnd those who kill should really get a clue!<\/p>\n
