Sad Song
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H_5j0uzlYfo&feature=plcp
I'm tired of hearing that same song
That same mournful and sad beat
A slow tempo with a soft tone
That causes your eyes to leak
The sad moaning of the violin
Mixing with the steady heartbeat of the drums
Emotions that were forced to stay hidden
Exploding like a number of silent bombs
Feelings so strong heading to the climax
The beat breaks with an emotional release
The mental battle between the sword and ax
Before you can attain an emotional peace
Eyes red from painful tears
As the mind and body slowly recover
The sad song finally ends
But then it is played over and over
