I AM

by brian.connection

I am a melody 
I wonder how I’ll live my life 
I hear what I feel in my head 
I see a story full of hope 
I want to be the music 
I am a melody

I pretend I'm the emotion 
I feel like an emotion 
I touch an idea 
I worry for the music 
I cry for the harmony 
I am a melody


I understand what I'm about 
I say I will try 
I dream for the plot 
I try to do what I can 
I hope some day I can be a song but for now 
I am a melody
