There is a freedom in losing your hearing.
You have a choice.
What to hear, what not to hear.There's a huge silver of choice embodied in freedom.
That, I have now.
I can choose what I want to hear.And right now, i choose nothing,
I don't want to hear a thing.Some car crashed into ours
and when I opened my eyes,
Mom's head was covered in blood.
Mom wasn't breathing anymore.I'm over 30 for fuck sakes.
How the hell do I explain this?There's more.
I can't move my legs,
I can't hear anything with my good ear,
I have no good ear.
And I think it'll be that way forever.Yvette, my twin sister arrived.
She held me close and cried.
I cried too, I can't remember the last time I saw her.They never stop calling.
They never stop texting.It's overwhelming, all of this.
So I tune the world out.I choose not to hear a thing.
