They don't understand, no they don't It's not that high, maybe from where you are From the hole that I'm in, it is It's not just the height, it's also the depth that I'm in They don't understand, no they can't It's not that deep, yes, from your comfort it's not. It's so deep and dark I can't see the supposed ladder Infront of me They don't understand, maybe they will never . Maybe it's all an excuse, maybe it's not that deep Maybe it's not that high and I can reach out Maybe my hands aren't that crooked that I can hold on Maybe my feet aren't that broken that I can stand and walk Maybe my heart isn't shutting down Maybe I'm not drifting out of consciousness. Maybe just maybe I'm not dead Stay positive you said                                          This copse lives

Absent understanding
