Emily Plays Rough

er in slow motion
And else still
Who would guess
That pent-up trouble lurks within
Getcha when you most expect it
Dig ya in the ribs
It hurts
To lose control and flinch a bit
To squirm because you gotta
(aye, there's the rub)
And then expel a breath or two
Must attempt revenge
Or go down trying
One of those times
When giving up isn't all that bad
