My heart's heavy for friends, family and neighbors in Joplin, Mo. Here's a hurried column I wrote reflecting on the EF5 tornado that decimated my hometown. I'm heading back this weekend to spend a few days trying to capture the immense damage and grief. Right now I'm for the right focus, considering all of the other journalists down there, and the fact that I'm late on the scene. But there are so many stories that need to be told.
This song's been on my mind as a result of all the uncertainly and helplessness in the air.
With a headache, and a heavy heart
Well, nothing was going quite right here
And I'm tired, I can't play my part
Oh, come on, come on
Oh, what a state I'm in
Oh, come on, come on
Why won't it just sink in?
That help is just around the corner for us
Oh, my head won't stop aching
And I'm sat here, licking my wounds
And I'm shattered, but it really doesn't matter
Cause my rescue is gonna be here soon
Oh, come on, come on
Oh, What a state I'm in
Oh, come on, come on
Why won't it just sink in?
That help is just around the corner for us
