How do I say

Why do you love this?

What makes you keep doing it?

 

I am always asked these questions.

How do I tell them

How do I say

That sometimes it's the only thing that matters to me?

The only thing I can cling to,

Cling to my own happiness?

How do I say I can't fall asleep without it,

I can't live without it,

Because how could I ever,

When it's such a huge part of me?

It just is.

I am music.

Music is me.

It's my way of being -

Existing -

Being myself.

How do I say just looking at it,

Not as another project or something to do

But as a story,

Something to tell,

Something to show,

Brings me joy?

How do I say I perform

Whenever I can

As scared as I am

Because I need to be a soloist one day

And I want to be

Or

Even just be part of something bigger than me?

How do I say it's all I am?

 

Why do you love this?

What makes you keep doing this?

 

How do I say I do it

Because to me there's nothing else in the

World

I would rather do?

  • Story of my life

    I could pretend to be happy

    When the world is ending

    And you'd all believe me

    I'm a great actor

    But never onstage

     

    I can say I'm happy for you

    Congrats that's so cool

    When under it all

  • It's hard

    It's hard

    It's really hard

    When there are so many people to balance all the time

    So many personalities

    So many conversations

    Overlapping

    Talking over each other

    So many big emotions

  • I think

    I think you make me really happy

    I think it’s sort of all-consuming

    I think I want to be with you every second

    Of every day

    I think maybe what keeps me up at night

    Is replaying you
