I would sing because I'm good at that boy, do I have pipes. but I'm terrified upon this stage all of you looking at me expectantly Part of me thinks it would be fun if not for my parents in the audience looking at me expectantly. I've never felt at ease doing it for them. That open mic keeps standing there posters, stages, coffee shops everywhere but I can't. I'll try anything but this. I sometimes feel as if my parents wish I would perform like when we watch 'School Of Rock' or 'A Perfect Chord'. I guess I always thought it would go away when I got older but it's MY choice. I have to decide. will I lift my voice or stay stubbornly silent?
