I am nothing without this thing called spell check
I have nothing on many of yours education
and many of yours upbringing
and I envy most of your elegance
but I will continue to speak from my heart
hoping you hear me, and hoping you do the same

Many people don't seem to care
What is happening to our country

It's like we are on a ship
And there is a small hole

People ignore it
Oh that's just a small hole
They say

Soon there is another
More water coming in

The people would rather play cards and relax
I tell them
This is our ship
We don't get another

This is our nation
Yet people are oblivious
Oblivious to the water coming in

Well this ship just isn't seaworthy anymore
I won't abandon ship
I won't abandon
The values the founding fathers believe in
Come what may..

I'm tired of writing about a boy who doesn't even remember he loved me

Green all around
nothing but trees
flowers blooming
buzzing of bees
squirrels running
under your feet
sun blaring down
blistering heat
nothing for miles
can't find your way
must start a fire
tonight you must stay
the wind chills your body
down to the core
and here comes the rain
a torrential downpour
what started as happy
a nice nature hike
turned into horror
and a fight for your life
so the torrent falls
and you shiver away
hoping and praying
to be found 'fore it's too late.
