Sedation

I shall keep a distance
I shall keep at bay
So I won’t be hit
By the typhoon

I shall keep a distance
I shall keep at bay
So I won’t be struck
By the tempest

I shall keep a distance
I shall keep at bay
So I won’t be clout
By the thunderstorm

But can it still hit, struck or clout me now
When I’m immune to the pain

But can it still hit, struck or clout me now
When I’m numb

But can it still hit, struck or clout me
When I’m sedated

I shall keep a distance anyhow
When I know I’m done with life anyway
