Holding face in the palm of my hand
Feeling eyes squeezed shutting tight
Jaw clenching teeth grinding
A fine powder made from my life
I know, this was made for me
But I lack enough empathy
Pushed back
Into a jar with the lid closed, so alone.
I often try so hard
To find some moment of zen
Slowing down just ends up
Creating more tension
I know, this was made for me
This burgeoning uncertainty
Pushed back
Deep down inside, only left with a lie
The torsion twists
And then it turns.
A column cracks
The plaster falls to the ground
You peaked inside
You stayed around
Try to relax
Hope is coming out.

You gave me sight
You gave me life
You gave me something
To get through the night
You gave me sight
You gave me life
You gave me something
To win that fight
Gave me sight
Gave me life
Gave me something
To get through the night
Gave me sight
Gave me life
Gave me something
To win that fight
