Distraction
What a road I have followed
ever winding and long
distraction has taken me
to places that were wrong
they were scary
they were sad
they were crazy
they were bad
but I have you figured out
distraction of my mind
you tried to protect me
make me think things were real
when you thought I couldn't cope
with the things I needed to feel
so now I am on to you
and the pain has gone away
distraction is no longer with me
I am free for many a day
