found.
I hear she’s from Bosnia –
a refugee of war perhaps
she came here to get away
but you found her
you found her
and I’m sure your hands found her
and your mouth
and your, your…
I hear she’s from Bosnia –
her family leaving terror to come
to the land of the free where
you are so free
to make a terror of your own
you found her
and I found her too
standing by you
and you know what –
she looks just like me
and I know that, that means
she’ll never be free
I hear she’s from Bosnia –
you found her
I found her
maybe someday she’ll find me
and I can tell her your game
so she can finally realize
it’s okay
to quit playing.

Interesting use of repetition and variation.
I like this for its insights and repeating thought.
