I am an enigma that never stops moving I dare anyone to attempt to catch me I may light up the sky like a firefly But I soar like a butterfly just a pretty as you please Like Peter Pan on his best day Happy thoughts pumping through his veins I am unstoppable                                    Except when they fight... When she cries And he throws things King Kong comes to the suburbs In the loft upstairs                     Their voices rise above all of my walls                     Their anger piercing through any of my defenses So I sit still Hoping that the tornado will pass me by I sit still Wishing to be a table Or perhaps that overstuffed chair that nobody likes Maybe the unsuspecting bedside table that knows all of your secrets but would never tell                              Maybe if I just sit still for a little while I won't exist...
