Something Spoke Louder Today... (For Kenny...)

Why can't you feel me?
Can't you see I'm screaming inside?
Now you all weep for me
On the day I finally died...

I never talked about the real me
The demons hidden inside
Chemicals and Chemistry
Gave me the means to hide

I don't know where I went wrong
I don't know what I need to say
I hear your voices in my head
But something spoke louder today

I was always who I was
Defiant, but I could see
I never wanted this hell
Here I am, this is me

So many hands reaching out
Which one do I take?
The one in front, so familiar
For a minute i don't feel fake

I don't know where I went wrong
I don't know what I need to say
I hear your voices in my head
But something spoke louder today

My life was my greatest art
This is what I leave behind
Please don't cry for this broken soul
There is so much left to remind

Too many mistakes have led me
To a place that I can't escape
I leave you now in solitude
As you gaze upon my life's landscape

I don't know where I went wrong
I don't know what I need to say
I hear your voices in my head
But something spoke louder today

I don't know where I'm going
I'll tell you if I see you again
My time here was over long ago
But I may visit now and then...

I don't know where I went wrong
I don't know what I need to say
I hear your voices in my head
But something spoke louder today

Something spoke louder today...

Wow, this is really heartfelt and meaningful, a beautiful sadness
