Nothing and Nowhere

Feeling the heart and pain in his lyrics
While the music plays on
Drawing you into its fantasy world
Where you can be yourself
You believe him, he's telling the truth
You give yourself over to the power of his osng
Your vunerability exposed.

But as the music dies down
And his voice fades away
Depressing reality
Hits you hard as you realise
That his song
Wasn't true
All along.

Tomorrow, is the today we feared yesterday.

I only wish I knew who you were talking about.  There are so many musicans that in the past and in the present that spoke such clarity to so many.  Who are you talking about.  I have an idea that I might know, but do tell and do it through an e-mail please.  I might not come back to this forum for a while and when I do it will prolly be a pain in the rear to find this piece amoungst all the others.  I liked.

thank goodness you've realized this before it was to late, after investing perhaps years and years of committment

There are some songs I can't bear to listen to anymore,
preferring the silence that rings truer.

Nicely expressed, vampiana~
