Trauma, its so out there
and can hit you sometimes where
you just did not expect it
you thought you were aware
but it came up and it
whacked you
you felt hurt and let down
that is trauma after all
it takes you to town
how the hell can you achieve
tell trauma its no place
you are stronger
than it thought
it will have to face
you have someone near you
whose love is so profound
you have someone with you
with both feet on the ground
together you can fight it
apart, I doubt if you
or anyone can fight
unless inside of you
there’s a herd of angry stallions
or an elephant or two
or a tiger with a toothache
who just got out of some zoo
trauma, yea its out there
and of course can track you down
but you can combine power and love
and run it out of town
nothing at all out there
can hurt you unless you
drop your guard
then he’ll come down hard
and really try and screw
you down onto some platform
but you now must resist
tell him ok trauma
this here is my fist!
