I'm not gon sing a or nothing.

Um, what that term they call it post traumatic stress That thing that
uh, soldiers get. I think a lot of people get that. It's like when you
experience and uh, it affects you for a long time afterwards. I guess
everything works that way. Certain things have more impact others.
Sometimes it visits you in your dreams or you're quiet or just at peace or
to be at peace. A lot of soldiers get it. A lot of common people get
it. A lot of the time common are soldiers, that's just the way it works
out.

When I had myself

Much its collected relics of which, I am one.
So, my flesh bullet-ridden hidden
Underneath these soft
Which I carefully
That in for how I used to feel,
For how I feeling,
For how I dream feeling,
For how I about you.
And now your curious fingers want to

Surgically, robotically, exactly.

Like a nervous policeman's
Brisk, intent, for discovery.
If discretion is a
Then you're threatening to it
By simply standing at the
And to leave.
I look at you right now,
But you can at me. Do you see me?
