She Keeps Going
A busy woman
Hair long gray
Covers her home in post-it notes
Of words she can't quite say
No one to listen
No answers back
No one to say
There's another way to say that
Words that should be hers trip on her tongue
Tries again but knows they go when she's gone
She keeps going
Though the end stays fuzzy and far
She keeps going
Though the work is lonely and hard
She keeps going
When it seems she won't get anywhere
She keeps going
When it feels like no one else cares
A kid rides downtown
They know no one here
Joins on a hot crowded block
Who's in charge remains unclear
Lined with empty eyes the walk is long
They can't stand to stand still
They see what's going on
They keep going
Though the end stays fuzzy and far
They keep going
Though the work is lonely and hard
They keep going
When it seems they won't get anywhere
They keep going
When it feels like no one else cares
The fear gets so loud
It drowns out everything
When all you remember
Are reasons you don't believe
You keep going
Though the end stays fuzzy and far
You keep going
Though the work is lonely and hard
You keep going
When it seems you won't get anywhere
You keep going
When it feels like no one else cares
You keep going
You keep going
You keep going
You keep going
Hair long gray
Covers her home in post-it notes
Of words she can't quite say
No one to listen
No answers back
No one to say
There's another way to say that
Words that should be hers trip on her tongue
Tries again but knows they go when she's gone
She keeps going
Though the end stays fuzzy and far
She keeps going
Though the work is lonely and hard
She keeps going
When it seems she won't get anywhere
She keeps going
When it feels like no one else cares
A kid rides downtown
They know no one here
Joins on a hot crowded block
Who's in charge remains unclear
Lined with empty eyes the walk is long
They can't stand to stand still
They see what's going on
They keep going
Though the end stays fuzzy and far
They keep going
Though the work is lonely and hard
They keep going
When it seems they won't get anywhere
They keep going
When it feels like no one else cares
The fear gets so loud
It drowns out everything
When all you remember
Are reasons you don't believe
You keep going
Though the end stays fuzzy and far
You keep going
Though the work is lonely and hard
You keep going
When it seems you won't get anywhere
You keep going
When it feels like no one else cares
You keep going
You keep going
You keep going
You keep going
