Nissi's Heterotaxy Blues |
Don't Give Up On Me |
I've got the Heterotaxy Blues
My issues come in twos I'm among the rare fews Confounding the medical crews Where do I start I've got half a heart Got inner turmoil My guts backward coil I'm missing my spleen You know what I mean Everything's misplaced But it's not the worst I've faced I've replicated my right Yet nothing's in sight Twice my heart fire As long as it don't tire Through the nose goes my food And the ND's misconstrued When that tube comes out Is when I really wanna shout I'm feelin' taxed by Heterotaxy My anatomy is goin' wacky I can't stomach that Heterotaxy Somebody turn around what's inside of me For I've got the Heterotaxy Blues My issues come in twos I'm among the rare fews Confounding the medical crews |
Don't give up on me
Though the odds are stacked Keep holding on to me Till we got this fully cracked When silent gladness turned to fear And bright future turned to black When prophets of doom had you surrounded I knew you still have my back And as things hit reality And life began anew The grim naysayers kept their barking In voices soft as dew But from the struggle came a clarity Above the clamor and the din Though the masters know the fate You're still just not giving in And while the valleys are so steep And yet the lions roar You climb the impossible foothills To allow me yet to soar Cuz there's no giving up on me Not as vict'ry's beheld each day Yeah, you'll keep holding onto me All the lions held at bay No, there's no giving up in you Your soul knows no weary retreat Your heart beats a protective embrace Never allowing the thought of defeat Don't give up on me - No, no giving up. Keep holding on to me - we're living it up. |
