    Default A Fair Trade

    You ever feel like you're living for nothing...
    And ending it wouldn't change a damn thing?
    'Cause you've been gone longer than you care to accept

    You ever feel like you're fighting a war?
    As you sit alone at home, all alone
    It's like heaven vs. hell vs. you, right?
    And you're running out of ground to stand, ground to fight

    Giving something for nothing
    Almost seems like a fair trade

    You ever feel your skin peeling...
    Slowly revealing a grey monster beneath?
    You feel that soon there'll be nothing left for you but healing
    And ending it would change everything
    For better or for worse, doesn't matter which

    Giving something for nothing
    Almost seems like a fair trade

    I noticed and commented on some of your old stuff a few weeks ago, I thought they were really good. This is my favorite of your recent posts but I like them all, even the shortest ones. It's like I said somewhere else before, one of my favorite songs (Enigma - Invisible Love) only has 4 lines and 9 diff words in total, but I think the feeling behind those few words is a little bit awesome. Music (or even poetry) does not need to (and should not) spell everything out, and for me it's great when it connects with something that I already want to feel or think or say, but don't know how. Music (lyrics) can just bring that out and make it complete for me. As do some of your lyrics.

    In short, I appreciate all you post here and I look forward to more
