It amazed me just how quick And it hurt me how much it kicked I held a strong and sound thread To a numbness that plagues my head Metaphore or idioms can not compare To the lack of feelings, even of despair Monotonous tone hinders my voice I'll hug my knees "I have no choice" A laugh became a gasp of air A conversation became a simple stare Accidents I've made have turned to mistakes A great fear to whisper and a fear to ache My eyes that once would glow bright Have been disguised among the night A great fear I expressed long ago Now is the truth I'd never show

A Change Within a Snap
It amazed me just how quick And it hurt me how much it kicked I held a strong and sound thread To a numbness that plagues my head Metaphore or idioms can not compare To the lack of feelings, even of despair Monotonous tone hinders my voice I'll hug my knees "I have no choice" A laugh became a gasp of air A conversation became a simple stare Accidents I've made have turned to mistakes A great fear to whisper and a fear to ache My eyes that once would glow bright Have been disguised among the night A great fear I expressed long ago Now is the truth I'd never show
I tried. I really did try. And now it's all quiet and I don't know where to go. My habits haunt me more and more.
