Until you close your eyes

Deashon Tarver 1990 (Albany)

Let's take a step
Forward
Then take a step
Back
From agony and
Pain
That sets us all
Back
We'll cry a little
Tear
And jam a little
Bone
Then shout a little
Louder
Until your not
Alone
No need to hate the
World
No need to
Wonder why
Just fight until
Forever
Until you close your
Eyes.
