I WATCH YOU REBOUND

Oh I try to seize the day

Even got it written on my wall

Oh these walls that hold me back

My shuttered soul - making my eyes black

I see you crying by the riverside

I hear writing – fighting - trying

I feel your pain

Did I cause that?

I watch you rebound and rebuild

Empty stages of a butterfly mind

A train ride across country to a faraway find

Standing in the pouring rain your touch envelopes me

Holding hands in a no mans land

Can anyone see?

I see you crying by the riverside

I hear writing – fighting - trying

I feel your pain / Did I cause that?

I watch you rebound and rebuild

Feelings that are rough around the edges

I feel so - out of control

I can’t stop the past from replaying inside my walls

Friends telling me sorry for the complications

Lovers telling me that they’ll shield

Family screaming for normality

Then there’s me - trying to keep it real.
