Staring into the eyes of unknown faces
that weren’t from around these places
they left behind a case as bait to see if someone
was brave enough to go for a taste
Walking towards us
I could sense static with every breath they took
Sizing us up as I noticed one
carried an automatic in his waist
with an erratic look on his face
Knowing that we’ve ruined their sounds of revelry
Nightfall quickly arrived as we had no point in lying
Trying our best to placate these strangers with an explanation
Cooler heads eventually prevailed
as we sat there and slowly exhaled
These unknown faces weren’t from around these places
