Single Song

Julien Martinoia


If I'd kept 
These feelings in me one more day 
It would have 
Ended by killing me some way 
I only needed to express 
That painful devouring distress 
You will not hear about it 
Don't worry, you've made yourself clear 
I needed to find an exit... 

So I wrote 
This single song 

Every note's a tear 
Every chord's a grief 
That I felt 
It's my outlet 
And this heart-rending 
Melody's crying 
Thus I face 
This loneliness 
You've laid me down 

You couldn't 
Care less about what I suffered 
That's enough 
I won't remain silent longer 
Though I have not your approval 
I'll come alive again through all 
Thanks to verses and some rhymes 
I portray the aches of my mind 
Let the music imbue my shouts 

So I wrote 
This single song 

Every note's a tear 
Every chord's a grief 
The whole stave 
Is made of wails 
And this heart-rending 
Melody's crying 
Thus I face 
This loneliness 

Every note's a tear 
Every chord's a grief 
That I felt 
It's my outlet 
And this heart-rending 
Melody's crying 
Thus I face 
This loneliness 
You've laid me down
