Dear Listener

Dear listener
Gimme a second to listen here.
I won't bite, don't you fear.
I just need someone to lend me an ear.
What I may tell you could cause shedding tears.
I have looked back over the years
And wondered," where'd my life go?"
Why can't I just go home?
Why do I feel so alone?
I sit there talking on the phone.
Listening to ever ringing dial tones
You know what they say.
When in Rome.
But all I want to do is sit there,
Piss and moan.
And all they can say is," Hey hey watch your tone".
Watch my tone?
Why don't you sit here alone?
Why don't you hear the dead voices from home?
Why don't you understand my soul was meant to roam?
Why can't you see this cage isn't my home?
Dear listener
Gimme a second to listen here.
I won't bite, don't you fear.
I just need someone to lend me an ear.
What I may tell you could make you shift gears.
I took a drive tonight.
People asked me," you doin' alright?"
Shit, what you think? That five in a row and I'll just sit tight?
I still have flashbacks to that night!
What the fuck makes you think I'm doing alright?
I drove up on the hill.
Left the gear on Parked.
Here it is, my final Kill.
On the forehead is my target marked.
Steel is cold.
Blood runs warm.
The echoes of the shot are old.
But still muffled by the storm.
