It Comes Back for You
Nancy Zhou Forlorn eyes, silent sighs A buried truth that may never rise Sinking in a river of tears God forbid if someone hears The little boy inside of you Pounding at the door of his tomb It’s better to drown in misery Than let your emotions take victory Just nod and smile Take off for a while That big-stone wall Ain’t so tough after all Soon the wall you’ve built will collapse And all your scars will reveal, perhaps The demon you’ve been fighting all along Had been your very own spawn |
