Were You There
when i cried
were you there?
with words –
and comforting hug
could you ever understand
you want me –
to be what you imagine
but you are mad
you need your head examined
it has tram lines –
leading to destruction
when i tried
and failed
or when i fell
were you there
i have stories to tell
show me some care
you are mad
what is going on in there?
