            F#
Writing my poems for the few
That looked at me,
 F
Took to me, shook to me, feeling me
             A#m
Singing from heart ache, from the pain,
Taking my message from the veins,

Speaking my lesson from the brain,

Seeing the beauty through the…

       A#m
I was choking in the crowd,
Living my brain up in the cloud,
             F#
Falling like ashes to the ground,
           F
Hoping my feelings, they would drown.
         A#m

Ebbing and flowing, inhibited, limited,

Till it broke up and it rained down,
           F
It rained down like…
