[ PTSD Is A Horrible Thing To Go Through Life With ]
[ Some People Say (GET OVER IT) ]
[ (KEEP A STIFF UPPER LIP) ]
[ Well Those People Who Like To Shoot From The Hip ]
[ Think They Know How It Is ]
[ But They Don’t Know Shit ]

[ Take The Worst Thing That Ever Happened To You ]
[ Remember The Feelings, Fear Or Fright ]
[ Times That By Two ]
[ Then Relive That Day Or Night ]

[ You Are Completely Back In The Event, Sight, Smell &
Sound ]
[ Were You Standing Up ]
[ Or Were You On The Ground ]

[ Do You Remember What You Did? ]
[ Were You Out In The Open ]
[ Or Were You Hid ]
[ Were You An Adult? ]
[ Or Were You Just A Kid ]

[ Does It Tease ]
[ Your Mind ]
[ Or Does It Freeze ]
[ You @ The Same Time? ]

[ Are You Wide Awake When It Happens ]
[ Is It Your Spirit That It Dampens ]

[ One Never Knows When A Flashback Will Hit ]
[ It’s Like Playing A Game With A Long Snake ]
[ & Out Of Nowhere You Get Bit ]

[ The Length Of A Flashback Can Be Short Or Long ]
[ It All Depends On If You Are Strong ]

[ Or Weak ]
[ PTSD Can Crush The Meak ]
