Kick in the Stomach
John Samaras
If you're tired, rest your eyes
There’s nothing left to see
But if you're curious
Go ahead, by all means
Listen to the wind at night
That's when nature speaks in tongues
Though you never notice
It’s what filling up your lungs
Kick in the stomach
Kicked in the stomach by you
It's more that I can stomach
More that I can stomach from you
Always walking in circles
Never getting past square one
Eventually you'll explode
Keeping secrets for too long
So you rip out the pages
Of the stories that you wrote
Those forgotten tales
Of the half note that's far from whole
Kick in the stomach
Kicked in the stomach by you
It's more that I can stomach
More that I can stomach from you
Keep the pictures you took
You won't recall
When angels steal your memories
The ones you adored
