GiMMe A BeAt

Wrong Side of a Love Song

 I fell in love when I was young.

It was a beautiful thing.

The highs and lows.

Emotionally satisfying.

My first love was my passion for music...

Then I met you.

A journey to the top of the world...

And back.

Nothing lasts forever.

I ruined you,

you ruined me.

Now every melody reminds me of you.

I used to love the songs where you could FEEL the hurt,

those songs moved me.

Now I just hear the hurt.

I hear your complaints in every lyric.

Every line is soaked in your tears.

Every argument we ever had plays out in chord...after chord.

I used to love music.

Now I find myself hiding from the symphony.

I can't get no...satisfaction.

I ruined you,

you ruined the music in me.

GiMMe A BeAt

It is the way it moves me,
The pitch of the verse that speaks to me,
The melody and the beat that engage my body so...
As to breath life into my lungs and pump BLOOD into my heart,
It is just NOT some substance of entertainment,
Some small source to get me through my day,
No...it is the very molecule of my being,
The one thing that is but the thing that DEFINES me,
It is me,
Or I am IT!
Plug me in, play me, scratch me, spin me, TRANSFORM ME!
Ahhh...
If I could only have MUSIC...
That is all I'd ever need!
