Cornelia and Jane

I hear them whispering Just out of view Still unknown what's inside of you Outside your window, Neighbors peer in at you How can we care for you? How can we hold on to you? Caught up in motion, swirling around, Sometimes you're standing still On uneven ground Too many sirens they keep you up at night Sit back and, hold your ears How will we hold back your tears I hear them whispering, they analyze But no one knows what's lost in your eyes Sending the message, it doesn't get to you How can we care for you? Slipping, away deep, inside of you And how can we hold on to you?
