Song 144

Words. What are words. Why do I care? They can mean anything except what I actually mean. False is true in a sense. Sensitively sensing senses for cents. A dollar or two can feed the starving... but it doesn't taste very good. You should probably feed starving people food instead.

Yeah, so, on to the song...

lyrics

Well on my way
Clutching gold from the stars
Standing alone
Watching passing cars
Saying my prayers

At a loss for words
My thoughts in a noose
A pregnant pause
So few words left to choose
Saving my life

Complications
I fight all I know
I am staring witless
At the fantasy show
Wasting my time

All these words can be
Anything I want to say
But never what I mean
I'm inside my head today
But I won't leave the lights on

Where does my lightning go
Where does my lightning go
