Something to say
Stand up and listen!
Cause I have something to say.
You keep running away.
Don’t turn your back on me,
Cause I have something to say.
Listen to my words.
Though they seem to make no sense.
Listen to me, hear what I am saying.
When you walk away it makes more sense.
I am the one still standing.
These words are for you.
I am the one to understand,
While you try not to hear.
There is something about it.
There is more to be said.
Do you want to listen,
Or do you want to continue to walk away.
I will not go away.
When you sleep,
I am in your dreams
When you think,
I am in your thoughts.
When you think you are all alone,
I am standing right there.
Even when you are home,
You are not alone.
By the time you understand,
I will already be gone.
