INTRODUCTION: Being Music

When you asked me to sing you a song
The music that floods my veins tried to leak out to you
It is no wonder my skin has stretch marks
When I am constantly having to stretch to contain myself
Why is it the nature of music to try to escape it's maker?
To run from the head of the ones who conceive it
To flee from the organs that make it
To escape the minds that dream it
why is it so hard for the notes that make me up to stay in one place?
When you asked me to sing you a song
It was easy, the music was eager
But when you asked me to be a person
I was lost.
