Blink

Amy Carr


I'm hitting my legs and pounding my chest
But my eyes just want to rest.
Slapping and clapping to keep me awake,
The lids of my eyes half- closed to the day.
Now i'm on a round-the-clock watch
To keep you in sight...
Keep you from flying.
'cause i blink and you're gone.
Your soul's so bright it rivals the sun.
I blink and you're gone.
Will i find the strength to carry on?
You're like a thief, so taken with the night
You steal the breath from inside me
And i'm the victim of your flight
You always deny me...
I can't go on, this world's so cruel
If the men don't get ya then the women will.
