Bruised, burnt and stumbling
Slowly I look around to see why everyone is silent
As I look around, I see no smiles
The smiles have disappeared
Everyone’s wondering what’s happened
Can they not see that I am bruised and I’m struggling
How can I smile with the limp in my step
How can I be cheerful when there’s a knife in my back
Surely they have not closed their eyes
Assuredly someone can see my condition
Otherwise why have they stopped smiling?
