I used to get heartfelt thanks I used to get honest words. Maybe sometimes I'm too frank and I apologize for everytime I curse. Where did all the people go? All the people who felt my words in their bones. Where did all the people go? Maybe you think I write just for me. Maybe you think I type it all up just to see my own words on my own computer screen. I guess I thought you related to me. Imagined I wrote your feelings for you when it wasn't easy. Thought I had some sort of impact/effect. I was wrong, it was just a crazy dream. Where did all the people go? I'm still here, writing away. Sometimes you respond with a "nice write, keep it up" and sometimes I think I'll just give this *crap* up. Where did all the people go? I miss you, come back? Even if you disagree write me, tell me how you really feel...
