Letters

So I've been writing again since m band has finished recording the last record. Basicly I just wanted to keep the flow going and keep my mind ticking over. I felt so weird having "no reason" to write. So these I will post are poems i guess, but more or less song concepts. Here's the first.

“Letters”

I could stay here forever
And fortify myself, against this world
Behind walls of wax, built by words
And the most comforting sounds I’ve ever heard

The daylight fades, the commotion dies
But the fire still burns deep inside
I fight my battles every day
My only weapons are my pen and pride

I write these letters to the world
In a hope that someone’s there
I write these letters to the world
With wishes you will understand

Like everyone else, I dream
I want more than what I’ve got
I dream of bigger things
I can’t wait for better days

The day will come, that it’ll be okay
The day will come, but not today
But you need to know, I’m looking forward
And I know I’m not alone

This is not a fight for the ones outside
This is a fight within my self
I need to learn to communicate
With those voices in my mind

I could stay here forever
And be content in self-contempt
But I won’t, because of the things I learned
From the most comforting sounds I’ve ever heard.
