What’s the difference
I still feel pain
I still cry
Twenty-four hours
Make a day
What’s the difference?
The nights so quiet
I still hear my heart beat
And when I’m cut
I still bleed
What’s the difference?
Six months I’ve been gone
And the grass is still green
But now I take pills
They say it’s to make me normal
I can’t tell
What’s the difference?
There will be those
Who don’t see it my way
And those who are prisoners
Of themselves
I can’t tell
Are they normal, if not
What’s the difference
I’m leaving here
As scared as I came in
And given some time
I’ll have problems again
But this time around
I know
What the difference is
