nothing more than a story behind a number.
some people pay them no mind;
some people hear them and wonder.
does this statistic apply to I ?
or someone near ?
statistics seem to be rubbish;
but should truly instill fear.
see there was once a young man who knew all of the stats.
who was infected with what;
and where these people were at.
but the reality of the stats didn't seem to apply;
so he thought the odds were to be tested;
and gave it a try.
thinking he couldn't be burdened by the statistics around him;
he ducked and hid away.
but the statistics found him.
with stealth and accuracy the statistic hid away inside;
inside the young man dies;
outside he's alive.
now the man cries;
he is in need of help.
he swore he would go free of statistics;
but now he is one himself.
with this story i say to you;
if it doesn't seem realistic;
do yourself a favor and look up the statistic.
