I fell my way into the light
Pressure beads roll down my temple
Is it so hard to understand?
There is courage sometimes,
Then follows fear and follows consequences.
There is beauty sometimes,
Then follows hate and follows cruelty.
The rain drips down on me
Still no umbrella eases the pain,
When did my shelter crumble?
And why was I not notified?
It is hard, I know
To walk in someone’s shadow
But harder still the path to take
When lowly strangers push you forward.

(Weird little one.)


And the legacy runs from needles to guns
And no one's immune to the pain
From Marilyn to River Phoenix
From Elvis to Kurt Cobain

Lead, follow, or get out of the way, huh?  Pretty cool.
