Internal Crash Lyrics

Internal crash took up seconds and stole his years, which are hard to earn back
You keep bringing him flowers while he sleeps the whole day through
Finally you found a way to see improvements that aren't really there

You lift an arm; you lift a leg
And they don't move, but he's still here
And everyday, he tries, and he'll adjust fine
As long as you let him through, he'll do a lot more than you

It's hard to keep driving back with no progress that you can see
Yes there are little moments
Mainly it's bland cubed carrots

Strapped in a chair on wheels, the view outside just makes him sigh,
"I already fought a war.
I didn't think i'd be fighting more.
But here i am back again, something more to defend."

Cover art for Internal Crash lyrics by Loquat

I was a US Air Force trauma nurse in Iraq and Afghanistan. I saw many young men injured some paraplegics another, and other devastating wounds.. I do not know the original meaning of this song or how this person sustained their injuries. “ I already fought a war” didn’t think I’d fight another (his disability) one he can’t defend. It sad to think of veterans “strapped to a chair on wheels” that have to depend on others for a wars we shouldn’t have been in. My music device had Loquat “Swingset chains” loaded onto it as it came with the purchase. This song I listened to with many others helped me decompress after 12 hour shifts in an active war zone trauma unit. I would dance alone in the dark,smoke cigars, and try to deal with all that I saw, felt and all the the loved ones who were soon to be notified that their sons, daughters and friends were dead or wounded, When I returned home I purchased 4 Loquat albums, where I came across this Song. I have “invisible wounds” and am still fighting wars….
