I Got Nothing

would it be alright
to carry a sign
even if I was alone
all through the night
does it push people away
to speak my mind?
is right still right
in a world full of fools
I wish I could sing
just to see
the care in people’s faces
as I played passionate songs
feeling as if we’re making changes

problem with dreams
Is they sometimes become nightmares
building a castle of sand
just to see it get knocked down
would it be sad
if I never left the couch?
can’t make a difference
so why try?
or maybe I should just ignore my heart
smile and nod when they tell me
the truth is now a lie
drinking my days till I’m crazed
probably would have more friends that way

with hands over ears
I whisper
don’t listen
don’t listen
don’t listen

If I finally had the opportunity
that moment of clarity
with everyone finally listening
what would I say?

I got nothing…
