Left Alone
Left alone
Birds sing all around
As I walk on down
Up the street, down the other
Crickets chirp ever so soundly
they hear
footsteps of dragging feet
The bees buzz ever so loudly
With a tune like honey
It sounds so sweet
The smallest of sound can feel my soul
The sound and pain in my heartbeat
"With those tears, why do you weep?"
"Come here my sweet child."
"Come here with me have a seat."
"why so sad?."
"why so gloomy?"
I replied with the nicest greet
"You are so small a bug a critter,
If you don't mind you give me the creeps"
Please for me do not feel bitter
Go about your business
I am the ace who made the mess
So move on along
There is nothing I want off my chest
Move ahead, chirp my sad song
For that is the only tune I have passed on
Even by the smallest sound
I want, nothing more than, to be
Left alone.
