PTSD Songtext
von Kim Beyer

Thought I got it out
Thought I talked about all of this stuff an acceptable amount
that I′m ready now, that it was enough
But one word, one smell, breaks me
Some song up and takes me
back where it began
and my body's slamming shut

Like sinking in a sea
Strikes from an enemy I don′t see
Tight muscle memories
I can't run, fight, wake, or scream


Back up with a plan, try it all again, feeling less sound
Took a lot of hits getting over it, still I rebound
The knock down drag out crazes
Fires in my safe spaces
burning me away and I feel ashamed somehow

Like sinking in a sea
Strikes from an enemy I don't see
Tight muscle memories
I can′t run, fight, wake, or scream

(Instrumental)

Might get the best of me
Strikes from an enemy I don′t see
The mind knows
but the rest of me goes to dark and deep history
EMDR me
