about

Notes: Trauma happens to everyone. It surrounds some earlier on, and for some, it lasts much longer. A jetty full of trauma whipped around me one week and this song fell out when it left. and what was left of family, friends and neighbors.

An impossible groove.

lyrics

Jim's been popping pain pills
Gut just gone and got bust
911 cuz his wife's in Vegas
got a hole need stitching up

Sue's been hidden it real deep
in heap of shakes and tears
In the ER cuz she can't calm down
Shit with Bob's been building for years

Tom's still under the table
and the grudge ain't goin nowhere
Choose to walk or choose to run
but get the fuck up out your chair

Junior's got his swell on
got his labels and his ride
Sherrif got his eviction
running out of places to hide
