HEALED

Do you ever see the footsteps on your ceiling

And wonder who's been walking upside down

Does it bother you that someone might be stealing what you're feeling

Double dealing while you're stranded on the ground

Do you ever hear the echo of a teardrop

As the politician takes his solemn oath

Does irk you that he's climbing up the ladder, getting fatter

Does it matter that he somehow got your vote

Sometimes broken limbs cannot be mended

Sometimes shattered hearts cannot be sealed

Sometimes broken minds lock their doors and close the blinds

Until they find the lines that nursery rhymes concealed
