Raw (Second Version)
My eyes are closed.
My head is down.
And yet I walk,
All about town.
My heart doesn't beat.
My lungs don't breathe.
My mouth doesn't speak.
I am so naive.
Although I can't see,
I can't hear or talk.
Although I can't feel,
I can still walk.
Paralysed in every way,
Except the one which matters.
I keep going, I keep being,
I'm living in these tatters.
They can see my everything;
My ins and outs, my ups and downs.
They see the hole inside of me,
And everything around.
They see me as I am, and they are all in awe.
They see me scared to live.
They see me; I am raw.
