"Read All About It (Pt. III)"

"You've got the words to change a nation
But you're biting your tongue
You've spent a life time stuck in silence
Afraid you'll say something wrong
If no one ever hears it how we gonna learn your song?

You've got a heart as loud as lions
So why let your voice be tamed?
Maybe we're a little different
There's no need to be ashamed
You've got the light to fight the shadows
So stop hiding it away

At night we're waking up the neighbours
While we sing away the blues
Making sure that we're remembered, yeah
Cause we all matter too
If the truth has been forbidden
Then we're breaking all the rules

Let's get the TV and the radio
To play our tune again
It's 'bout time we got some airplay of our version of events
There's no need to be afraid
I will sing with you my friend

I wanna sing, I wanna shout
I wanna scream 'til the words dry out
So put it in all of the papers,
I'm not afraid
They can read all about it
Read all about it, oh

Yeah, we're all wonderful, wonderful people
So when did we all get so fearful?
Now we're finally finding our voices
So take a chance, come help me sing this
Yeah, we're all wonderful, wonderful people
So when did we all get so fearful?
And now we're finally finding our voices"

To my lover.

Photo by: Anjelicek on DeviantArt 2010 "Lovers by the river" You are the prayer that exceeded expectations.  The reassurance that restores my life An unknown that became my guide Soul Tears that never came to pass You're misery that never actualised  You are life, my life. To be by your side , life and death the same My beautiful hiba .

Thousand Months.

Waiting for you to love me like I deserve it,  even though most nights, I fall asleep knowing I never deserved you.  Even for a minute I would give blood and sweat, for you to love me again, like you once did.  Im hurting, but so are you.  I wish I never wasted your love.  But I'll wait a thousand months, for you to love me like you did, Love me once again like I deserve it.
