Instead of trying to deal with this whole post traumatic stress crap
The dreams are unwavering
The feelings of uneasiness and shaking fear
I hate to say it but I know why Noah did what he did
As much as it hurts to loose someone so great
I don't know how in the hell I'm going to "get over this"
The standard answer from everyone
If I wasn't such a lightweight and didn't get sick
I'd be a damn alcoholic
Just so I didn't have to remember these terrible nightmares
And have these awful "flashbacks" or just remembering as I say
I'd like to go to sleep and for once have peaceful dreams
Wake up and feel rested and not drenched in sweat
Maybe no painful joints in my jaw
I don't know how the men and women those who were in Iraq and Afghanistan
Do all this without freaking out, and losing it
I went through a lot, they went through even more
Strong people they are...

Maybe the answer isn't to "get over it" like what happened wasn't real. Maybe a route you didn't anticipate is the way. Maybe going straight through the middle, with teeth bared, eyes wide open, at a full charge could be an option. Just remember, as you come to the beating heart of it all, grab that blood-pump, and squeeze the life out of it with every once of raw strength and anger you have. It's much easier said than done though. Just so you know.
