its hard

its hard

but until you see, you don't see

you dont see whats going on

the ropes behind these songs

the backdrop, the stage hands, the lights and sounds

and you are the backdrop

and you are the stage hand

you are the light and

you are the sound

you don't see whats going on

but when you do

you sit in the storm

take it all in,

and say ok

you breathe a little deeper

you catch your own breaths

okay

you do not clam shut

you do not let loose

you stand calm

breathe a little deeper

okay

you've been in the storm so long

you do not speak about it

you do not grieve

you be.
