Literary Term Tuesday #10 1  Do you ever feel like a plastic bag 2  Drifting through the wind 3  Wanting to start again 4 Do you ever feel, feel so paper thin 5 Like a house of cards 6 One blow from caving in 7  Do you ever feel already buried deep 8  Six feet under scream 9  But no one seems to hear a thing 10  Do you know that there's still a chance for you 11  ‘Cause there's a spark in you 12  You just gotta ignite the light 13  And let it shine 14  Just own the night 15  Like the Fourth of July
