Suddenly I find myself
Grasping at straws again
With trembling hands, the Parkinson's
of a rapidly beating heart
ba-dumba-dumba-dumba-dum
Discordant and uncertain
Skipping beats like it owns the place
The nerve...
My whole body pounds in time
Somehow in tune to the cacophony
Chaos inside and bliss without
Or blissful chaos, at least
ba-dumba-dumba-dumba-dum
thudthud thudthud
These feelings skittering around
Fireflies and bedbugs with no real agenda
Humming dizziness in my ear
The gentle bzz-bzz-bzzing
Of a hope buried so far below
Barely heard above the noise
ba-dumba-dumba-dumba-dum
thudthud thudthud
bzz bzz bzz
They say that peace is not the absence of chaos
but utter calm in the midst of it.
