Side-steppingWalking on the pavement of self-pity You feel safe but sorry Safe that you survived Sorry that your soul didn'tSide-stepping
You lived your life on terms you let others set You nodded your head Like most Indians do
The head sways from side to side Atypical of Us None can figure out If you meant Yes or No
You then sit willingly In the Emotional Roller-coaster ride Unbelted Holding to just a rickety handle
Your fear stems From the fact you are not in control But you wallow in Self-pity Biting into your own soul
