hands are reaching  hands are grasping hands are clinging hands are clasping   hands hide from sight hands find us in the night   hands are searching hands are creeping hands are touching hands are sneaking   hands hold us down hands cover up the sound   hands are dirty  hands are sticky hands are pushing hands are tricky   hands paint a mark  hands tear us all part   hands are flying hands are flinging hands are scolding hands are stinging   our hands hide us no more hands we want to see thoughts of suicide to set us free   October 13, 2005
