Song

I once wrote a song,

you know, about my life an' all.

A nice and complicated song,

like the ones you sing in a big hall.

I included my whole life,

in that special song.

I wanted people to hear me, 

loud and strong.

But somehow

that never occurred.

For some reason

my song wasn't heard.

Even for those 

who tried hard to hear.

My song

came across scrappy and unclear.

My song got stories

you won't find anywhere.

It's a song, you got to be me to write,

you got to be me to hear.
