The Ink Is Running Out

lyrics

-The Ink Is Running Out-

There is a single thought
That has been weighing on my mind
Since I began on this
Long and tedious climb
Can I use this pen to follow
All of my wildest dreams, or
Will my insecurities find me
Running out of ink; time after time…

Yes it’s possible that I’ve become
More hermitic in my old age;
I no longer understand social norms
Like I did in my youth.
I shy away from confrontation, yet
Temptation still tugs at my coat tails;
Beckoning me to free the beast within
Who seeks to deter me from my truth…

O! How I try in vain
To express all of my thoughts in song
Find the right melody, and
Put the lyrics where they belong
But, it gets difficult when
The words all seem to come out wrong
Hindering me from completing my task
And moving along…

Yes it’s possible that I’ve become
More hermitic in my old age;
I no longer understand social norms
Like I did in my youth.
I shy away from confrontation, yet
Temptation still tugs at my coat tails;
Beckoning me to free the beast within
Who seeks to deter me from my truth…
