J. Smith - Rotunda

You lay on top of the bed
Fought 'til no fighting was left
Midnight, outside there were others like me
Waiting for news of their child to be, So long
I was meant to be your shining knight
But I was frozen like a deer in lights
I was meant to be the one who spoke
But the swerving car had crushed my throat
I was meant to be the stronger one
But I was dragged behind the wheels til dawn
I was meant to tell them who you were
But I fainted with the threat of power
You lay on top of the bed
They asked should they go ahead
Bright lights, loud beeps, clary sage in the air
You bit your tongue for something to bare down on
I was meant to be your shining knight
But I was Frozen like a deer in lights
I was meant to be the one who spoke
But the swerving car had crushed my throat
I was meant to be the stronger one
But I was dragged behind the wheels til dawn
I was meant to tell them who you were
But I fainted with the threat of power
Be happy you've a healthy child
Did they stitch me up with silver lines
Be happy you've a healthy child
Don't tell me how to grieve that night
Be happy you've a healthy child
It won't change how I froze in fright
Be happy you've a healthy child
I am but I just need some time
