The presence of you
I hear you breathing
In and out
You’re a cruel thing
Hear you shout
Ears I carry
Quite fine ears
You scream upon me
Causing fears
Loud and flaming
Ready to riot
Up to shame me
Never quiet
Stressed my body
Crushed my soul
Left me bloody
All alone
Now I’m safe, you
Yell no more
I fly away, you
Stay ashore
In this high noon
She’s a woman
In the afternoon
I’m a grown man
Safe in heaven
Spirit free
You won’t deafen
Or silence me
I hear you breathing
In and out
You’re a cruel thing
Hear you shout
Ears I carry
Quite fine ears
You scream upon me
Causing fears
Loud and flaming
Ready to riot
Up to shame me
Never quiet
Stressed my body
Crushed my soul
Left me bloody
All alone
Now I’m safe, you
Yell no more
I fly away, you
Stay ashore
In this high noon
She’s a woman
In the afternoon
I’m a grown man
Safe in heaven
Spirit free
You won’t deafen
Or silence me
