O Romeo, Romeo,
I wish you understood
I had no intent to kill
The gentleman who now lies still
God rest his soul, Mercutio.

A friendly duel it was
When you stepped in to break it up
I knew something would happen
I'm not saying it's your fault
And 'tis true my sword impaled
As you made your attempt to end
The fight.

But Romeo, kinsman,
It was all accidental,
This I swear to be the truth
I would never want to kill
Or be killed.

Romeo...
Please don't kill me.
