How many tears have I shed while singing?
They bring my soul to their knees,
crying and screaming in pure pain.
The only time I can't stop my tears is when I sing.
My emotions burst like bombs as I sing,
ranging from angry to happy to depressed.
But they all have me squeezing my lungs hard,
not feeling the pain as I let it all out.
I can relate to almost every song I hear.
This world is a small world after all.
Sounds drown me deep into the rhythm,
but I don't mind it as long as I can escape the world.
My reoccurring dreams are going big on television,
showing the world what I'm capable of.
Will I ever prove myself worthy to the world?
Well, life is too short to hesitate singing.
Even in the shower, I still shed tears,
singing "He Stopped Loving Her Today."
The way I feel the singer's emotions,
it strikes at me so hard like an atomic bomb.
I sing from song to song of every genre,
but I never stop to take a breath.
Everything disappears when I open my lungs wide.
Hell, I don't recognize myself when I sing.
