A Million Ears

A hundred voices whisper

A thousand eyes stare

A million ears bleed

A billion situations can't compare

I decided to try this

Only with these bad thoughts

I try to hope for different results

Hanging on to what I first sought

I try what I have learned

To just ignore the silence

But, I only think about it more

My biggest consequence

Coughing and shuffling

Nobody ever has the time

I pour my heart on the stage

And they mop it with the rest of my kind

Forget fame, fortune, money

Anything any normal person desires

I want my life to have meaning

To never again feel like a failure

Thanks for listening

Only for you it was your mp3

I wish you all the best of luck

Hope you do the same for me...
