Over & Over

Glazed and dripping eyes
Subside into
The darker memories of life
Her shame is far
Too big her palms
Can't hide the sadness

That lies deep inside
She's barely alive
Look in her eyes
Arms outstretched
Towards the sky
She cries I will never

She cannot stop
The sound of thumping
The work of their drugs
Numbing her mind
Breaking through
All life's protection

Taking life without defection
She's barely alive
Look in her eyes
Arms outstretched
Towards the sky
She cries I will never

I will never
Fall like this again

Trip and fall and stumble down
Feel the power of the ground
Rising up straight
Through your hands
Still you'll never understand
She took me to a higher plane
Just to watch me fall again
Again I will never
