When you cannot sleep
for your eyelids won't greet
and you cannot run
for you can't feel your feet
When you cannot hear
for your eardrums won't beat
and you cannot speak
for your lips just won't meet
and when you cannot think
for your mind won't delete
When of what you've seen
you cannot speak,
and where you've been
you can't return
and what you've heard
you can't unhear
When what you've said
you can't take back
and what you've thought
you can't forget
Then to the heavens
loud and clear,
Call my name
and I will hear
