That Pink Little Ball

The day was perfect
Perfect with you
You took me to the park
To the park covered in blue
But among that blue
Sat a pink little ball
It bounced way up high
Soaring over the wall
Because we were kids
Innocent little kids
We made the mistake of our lives
Not knowing someone would die
We jumped that treacherous wall
And landed on the other side
Before us lay the highway
The highway that always lied
You waited for an opening
As the cars sped on by
You ran across the street
You were gonna throw it back to I
But because we are so small
Us kids on the road
That monster never saw
You were invisible like the road
And just as you threw
That pink little ball
Your eyes went wide in terror
Behind that grey old wall
With a honk and a screech
And a heart-stopping scream
Everything slowed down
Into a magical dream
And yet, among it all
From that magical dream
Came that pink little thing
The demon from the deep
