I can no longer sing
They have taken my voice away
I cannot write
They have chopped my fingers
The lies, your lies and theirs
Threaten to wrench away my life.
What would you do or
What would you say?
Debate, take out a rally,
Score brownie points with friends
On WhatsApp and facebook
Sipping on the finest scotch.
They didn't take my eyes away,
Nor my legs. I can see and run
Just run and run
I run..

Threaten to wrench away my life.

Score brownie points with friends
On WhatsApp and facebook
Sipping on the finest scotch.
They didn't take my eyes away,
Nor my legs. I can see and run
Just run and run
I run..
