I’m not there anymore
But it seems as if I never left
It’s in my throat
In my lungs
And in my head

Reminding me of earlier
Reminding me of when
I was safe until danger greeted me
Causing my world to frighteningly spin

I’m not there anymore
But the damage is done
It’s in my throat
In my lungs
And in my head
