Tap tap upon my arm, I know you’re there-
I feel you breathing on my hand.
Please go away, although I know you care-
things that people cannot understand.
I dug the ditch.
I rolled them in.
I saw their purple eyes
Begin to dim.
This air does not exist for me to breath;
friendship fly away, I’m not the one who will believe.
I saw them die,
Covered in dirt.
At night I cry
and I cannot release the hurt.
Nobody knows the way to turn back time
but I could swear this time that I would sacrifice my life.
Nobody knows the secret things that fill the air,
it’s no one’s job to care; it’s no one’s place to fight.
Dig dig, they stood in black around me in a circle and they stared;
I dug a wide and shallow grave.
They stood and watched; they don’t fear anyone anywhere-
They know that wholesome people never try to save.
Too good to dig.
Nothing is ever found.
Although it lies
Only an inch below the ground.
Nobody knows the way to turn back time
but I could swear this time that I would sacrifice my life.
Yet living means to look away, that’s what they say,
another day of sun, another chance to lie.
Tap tap upon my arm, I know you’re there.
Please go away; too many things I’ll never share.
I must remain.
I must not rise.
Must not forget
Their begging eyes.
