Hanging On

Subconscious anger
Hidden hurt inside
I’m a man hanging on a ledge
With my fingertips
Hanging on
The words you said
Hit so hard
Like a punch right through
To my heart

Now I’m all shook up
A kick in the head
I’m just hanging on
Hanging on a ledge
It won’t be long
If someone says
I’m strong
I’m only hanging on

Bruised aggrieved battered bleeding
Crushed burned shook shot
All torn up damaged scarred busted up
Sore tender crumbled up
