Fight or Flight?

The blow hits me like a semi.

It sears and stings my face.

I grip the tears inside my eyes.

With a rage that could ignite this place.



It sears and stings my face.

The flesh turns black and blue.

With a rage that could ignite this place.

I throw one back at you.



The flesh turns black and blue.

Do you know what it is you did?

I throw one back at you.

But this time its just the wind.



Do you know what it is you did?

I grip the tears inside my eyes.

And this time its just the wind.

But the blow hits me like a semi.
