Listen
I walk in the door at a quarter to four. Kick off my shoes throw my bag on the floor. Step downstairs into my room. Pick up my guitar and strum a tune. All i want to do is make you listen. Just for a moment you don't know what your misssin. So hear my voice and what i have to say. Cause i can be gone by the end of the day.
All i want in life is to be heard. Every verse i write and every word. It may not always be good enough.
But i will always try even when it gets tough.
Now that i have your attention. Will you really start to listen? Will i touch your heart in many ways? Not just at the moment but plenty of other days. Will i give you chill when you hear my voice? Or change the song just out of choice. Will i make your heart race when I sing? Cause that's not such a bad thing. But somethings never change. Everyday goes by people don't know my name. They haven't heard what i have to say, But when they do they will listen everyday. I just hope it happens before I'm dead. Cause that's when they get your song stuck in their head.
So listen up to what i have to say.
Cause you never know this could be my last day.
