"Casualty"
Take the cardboard mask of all the people
I've been
Throw them out with all the rusted
tangled, dented damned memories
You could say I am hard to hold
I'm just like my mother
Or so, I've been told
And there isn't anything
to comfort me
I've been told to put a chair
against the door
Turn the lights down low
"Write a letter to yourself"
"You've got to let it go"
Can you hear my laughter,
dazed and scared to death?
Is it drifting through
the air?
Don't listen...get away from me
I'm

....just another casualty.
