Annie

She lays her head down like the fight is so unfair
10 minutes at a time is how she survives
When there are no spoons left to give away

Did you know, the bravest thing you did was loose control
That's often what it takes to shed the smoke
And it's those who loose their life that find the gold

So raise your head
The waves will wash up on the shore
Press you back against the rock till you feel the moon
Annie, I know you're scared
But the thoughts won't kill - they'll only stare
And I got your hand, and your fearful heart
Breathe now, Annie, you're held

I know, the demons come at almost anytime
Takes all your strength to challenge those strange lies
But just because you thought it doesn't mean it's true

So bow your head- watch the fear return to gas
Press your hand against the dog till you feel the pulse
Annie, I know it's dark
When your eyes adjust, you'll see the spark
What do you trust? Where do you stand?
On our hands Annie, you're held

So bend your knees
Spring returns to everything
And place your hand
Against your heart till you feel the warmth

Annie I know one day
You'll feel again and laugh again
And play again and rise again
You'll wake up Annie with deep sight
You'll wake up Annie wide-eyed
