Feel Me Bleed

Blues player...play for me





Bend those strings

Un-spoken words

That only chosen

Knowing ones

Can hear...feel me bleed





Poet...write for me





Let the dead weight of heartache

Pour out onto the paper

As your sorrows

Of forgotten tomorrow's

Pours into ink...feel me bleed





Singer...sing for me





Look life and death in the eye

Lyrics inside that make strong men cry

Bits of paper and rhyme

Find the time

Let our anguish find the words

To be free

Suddenly please...bleed for me





Now that you've done

All that you can

Mr.Blues player, singer,

Poet writer man,

Combine the three

And let me see

Just this one last request

Please, please...conquer our quest





Die for me...feel me bleed
