Single Song

If I'd kept

These feelings in me one more day

It would have

Ended by killing me some way

I only needed to express

That painful devouring distress

You will not hear about it

Don't worry, you've made yourself clear

I needed to find an exit...

So I wrote

This single song

Every note's a tear

Every chord's a grief

That I felt

It's my outlet

And this heart-rending

Melody's crying

Thus I face

This loneliness

You've laid me down

You couldn't

Care less about what I suffered

That's enough

I won't remain silent longer

Though I have not your approval

I'll come alive again through all

Thanks to verses and some rhymes

I portray the aches of my mind

Let the music imbue my shouts

So I wrote

This single song

Every note's a tear

Every chord's a grief

The whole stave

Is made of wails

And this heart-rending

Melody's crying

Thus I face

This loneliness

Every note's a tear

Every chord's a grief

That I felt

It's my outlet

And this heart-rending

Melody's crying

Thus I face

This loneliness

You've laid me down
