Counting Your Sheep

Give attention,
that's all he craves.
A maniac in denial,
and he can't see day.
Maybe he's just too far gone.

I'm sorry,
you're an idiot.
A loaded gun,
and you'll have fun.
Maybe you just never realized it.

Look up,
what do you see?
Hallowed eyes,
and tear filled cries.
Maybe you just started to quit.

(Chorus)
You better think again,
before you stand back up,
because at the top of line,
I'm sending it all down again.

You better think again,
you better try your best,
because I'm counting your sheep,
and you don't know where I've been.

(Verse 2)
Knock out,
bringing blood and pain.
This just in,
the story is about to begin.
Maybe you don't deserve all of this?

All you,
still give him what he wants.
Some fame,
he doesn't even give a damn.
Maybe he doesn't know any better?

(Chorus x 1)

(Coda)
Oh hell,
he's at it again,
gagging on his own ego.
Oh well,
where's he been?
I heard that he finally let go.

Oh hell,
he's at it again,
gagging on his own ego.
Oh well,
where's he been?
I heard that he finally let go.

This is cool. I like the way it progresses. I love the way you ended it. Excellent lyrics.

PZ once again I'm just amazed at how you flow the lyrics and the thoughts. And it's because you have pure talent, there's no doubt in my mind about that. Don't ever let up, keep it flowin'

PZ you know how I work, complete honesty. You know you have a talent and I have praised you before where its due but this is not good mate. The 2 comments above will not help you in your future songwriting quest. I am surprised at the praise for these lyrics to be honest. I don't like being brutally honest but feel its for the best. I know you wont be offended anyway, we have been here before.

or........

maybe I just dont get this song.....ill let you decide

I totally agree with you. People interpret things differently, and maybe they thought they could relate to this. Honestly, I was in writers block until that one you really liked. Now I feel a lot more comfortable writing.
