Lack of people contact drains confidence Its not there when you want to use it Like an empty gun Making you the deer in the headlights The blended grey days leak ability And enthusiasm Fix the toilet, mow the lawn Or just sit and stare The lies on paper grow wider In order to gain attention And once given scream ‘fraud’ As you stumble to convince the unbelievers Work for yourself The old mantra repeats But where are the clients The ready takers for your services Going over the edge It’s not a rapid movement But you can see it coming From the first day it started

Resting Between Gigs
Lack of people contact drains confidence Its not there when you want to use it Like an empty gun Making you the deer in the headlights The blended grey days leak ability And enthusiasm Fix the toilet, mow the lawn Or just sit and stare The lies on paper grow wider In order to gain attention And once given scream ‘fraud’ As you stumble to convince the unbelievers Work for yourself The old mantra repeats But where are the clients The ready takers for your services Going over the edge It’s not a rapid movement But you can see it coming From the first day it started
