Trauma (From "The Rose: COME BACK TO ME")

When I was separated from your arms
I tried to hold on, I couldn't let go
The way you walked away without a sight
'Cause you were hurt too, now I understand

I wish I had known how to stop you then
I wish I told you I'll be fine without you

Deep down and down and down, deep down inside
I realized I was traumatized
When you're down and down and down, you tend to hide
I realized you were traumatized

I called you everyday straight for a year
And then I just stopped 'cause I got used to it
I learned to live without you in my life
And then I grew up, now I'm doing fine

I wish you'll hear this song and tell me now
That you're okay too, we can laugh about it

Deep down and down and down, deep down inside
I realized I was traumatized
When you're down and down and down, you tend to hide
I realized you were traumatized

Through the years I've fought to move on
Tearing down the walls that shaped my soul
Found the pieces I gave away, now I'm finally in bloom
And now I'm near the age you were, I truly understand

Deep down and down and down, deep down inside
I realized I was traumatized
When you're down and down and down, you tend to hide
I realized you were traumatized
