The First Good Excuse

It’s hard to talk about All the things that go on in my head And it’s hard get out All the things that I’ve left unsaid The tears that I’ve cried that nobody wiped From my dirty face…, Now leave with me salt, and a taste so bitter I can’t replace…. All these years that I wondered If anyone heard me The ears that I’ve burdened With ramblings For once in my life I just wanna be heard Loud and clear all my words I just want to be heard and be understood Please someone listen to me Please someone listen to me I’d love just hear that you’re listening To the words that I say And all these thoughts that I think Connecting you to me Can you help me bear this pain that I’ve been left To bear alone…. The stress is too much for me and I’ll soon be gone…. All these years that I’ve wondered If anyone heard me (Please someone listen to me) The ears that I’ve burdened With ramblings (Please someone listen to me) For once in my life I just wanna be heard Loud and clear all my words (Please someone listen to me) I just want to be heard and be understood Please someone listen to me (Please someone listen to me) Won’t anyone listen to me……
