Grounded
Carpet, I’ve lain on you all these years
Yet you still hold me up
I’ve cried my anger unto you
Yet you still soak it up as if it never were
Through my highs and lows
You’ve seen it all.
My deepest darkest secrets are forever with you
You’ve never let go of me
No matter what I ‘m feeling
You’re still there
You’re not just any carpet
You’re the thing that helps me stand up
Why when I fall you’re there to catch me
Over and over again
You’ve kept me grounded
One step after the other
One foot in front of the other.
