I saw his name
And everything around me changed
Blurred vision
Healed wounds becoming a fresh incision
I can’t breathe
But I couldn’t leave
Survival instincts
Thoughts of wishing I was extinct
Racing thoughts
I cannot connect the dots
Your name
Is my downfall rain
The kind I dread
Sometimes I can’t get out of bed
You see the outside and think I’m acting stupid
But let me sit you down and tell you what he did
Maybe but it depends
Maybe you’ll understand then.

I saw his name
And everything around me changed
Blurred vision
Healed wounds becoming a fresh incision
I can’t breathe
But I couldn’t leave
Survival instincts
Thoughts of wishing I was extinct
Racing thoughts
I cannot connect the dots
Your name
Is my downfall rain
The kind I dread
Sometimes I can’t get out of bed
You see the outside and think I’m acting stupid
But let me sit you down and tell you what he did
Maybe but it depends
Maybe you’ll understand then.
