~Punk!~

Punk is what was keeping me Alive

Punk is what protected

What was going on inside,

Punk is not a game

Punk is when you're insane.

Skating around the truth

No more straws to grasp at,

No more ways of escaping

The Pain,

Punk is a way of life that helps us

Get thru,

When we feel there is nothing left inside

Of the child,

That you all abused!

No more time to enjoy life

No more joy rides

Punk is what kept me alive,

For 10 DAM YEARS

Punk is what pulled me through,

If it wasn't for Punk and my God

Getting me out of bed,

And creating a way for me to feel

How to choose to Thrive,

Instead of laying down my life

Throwing down my fists

And living without choosing to fight!

I can't imagine what the difference would be

If I had just let myself fall,

And hit the pavement

Sitting still for years,

With a guitar case or cup out

Asking for help

From those passing by,

Until the ageing of my bones

And the drugs caught up to me

Here in Canadian weather,

When I would have to seek indoor shelter

And warmth,

That would only be superficial

And temporary on the outside,

Until that fateful day

When it's my turn

And Death came creeping upon my door!

I could have never continued to live within

This New World Order,

Without any Safety net

To help me now,

Make a difference

And change things for others.

To remain for my children

Setting an example of how lucky they are,

In knowing how much harder life can be

To understand better their love,

For Mother

And love for them from me!

So I say I have to Thank Punk

For keeping me here

For living in me,

Punk is what made me breathe

Punk is what was

Punk Kept me Alive!

But now I'm older

And all that has been drained,

And I have to start again

To find a way to LIVE

In a New Way...

Thank-You God for that,

Without time I needed for healing

I would still be trapped!
