Hey You

What do you mean hey You
My name is Norman
You is the other guy
The guy with the depressed mind
And irrational state of being
I haven't been You for awhile

Well where did You go

The last time I saw him
He was in a coulda shoulda world
Wondering why this happened
And why that didn't happen
He blamed everyone but himself
He was in a real dark world
Blinded by stupidity
You was

You mean his own stupidity

Yeah
He made the decisions
And let everyone carry on
Any way they wanted

You was blinded by the light

What light

The light of optimism
In a world by himself
For himself
Where everything was perfect

But then everything collapsed

Yeah
You was blind sighted

Well where did You go since then

He's still around
But hiding from me
I think he is somewhere in this old noodle of mine
Just a vacated memory
Is what You is

Well
Why is Norman different than You

To tell the truth
I don't really know yet
I'm still not the Norman of old
I play hide and seek
With people
I'm still afraid of them
And shun from conversations
I still can't talk
And my memory is rotted out
My gibberish is missing
And my mind goes blank
When people are around

Then why are you not You

Things are different now
Time has healed a lot of wounds
And I have people I love
And love me

In fact
I see the sunshine of a new day
And I welcome the healing
I'm beginning to feel alive

That's a step in the right direction
Welcome back
