See Me Here

 

See me here

You sitting next me

Your arm draped

around my shoulder

Telling me that’s

its all going to be ok

 

I can’t believe

what has just parade

I can’t believe

the pain in my arm,

the blood everywhere

My friend bleeding

Near death

As you comfrent me,

You hold me

So lightly

So soft

So gentle

 

The gun feet away

Can’t keep my eyes off it

It had to be done

I had to

Or more would die

 

As you hold my hand

I forget the pain

And melt right into you

I forget what’s all around us

And for now

I just won’t to be with you

 

I hear the cops saying

“That girls got balls,

she took down to armed men”

That made me shake

And you creedal my head

And whisper in my ear

And for now I know I’m safe.
