Crow sways 'FREEDOM'

"I fell asleep next to a lair, and I woke up with a shiner"
"She's in an all girl band, her futon's second hand"

I feel like someone starving in the desert for days, after the hunger and the thirst and the sunburns and all the pain blend together and it's possible to forget exactly why there is so much pain. As if it had always been that way. An then getting a taste of something, say and apple. Suddenly getting hit with the realization of just how much another apple would be appreciated. Or maybe some orange juice or even some Mexican food.

When wounds are deep enough, they never really go away. They simply close up and scar over. Sure they stop hurting, but later on, when you least expect it, when the weather changes or when you're under a lot of stress, they flare up, and you can feel them twinge. Not real pain, but something you can feel. It worries more than hurts.
