SOMETHING THAT'S ALREADY THERE

CAN YOU HEAR THE MUSIC

IN YOUR HEAD

HOW YOU GONNA USE IT

TO PRETEND

TO WRITE A SONG

AS YOU SING ALONG

TO SOMETHING THAT'S ALREADY THERE

Author's Notes/Comments:

IF YOU HAVE EVER FELT LIKE YOU ARE ON AUTO PILOT THEN YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN...IF NOT THEN I GUESS THAT'S WHAT IT FEELS LIKE...YOU JUST WRITE IT DOWN AS IT COMES FROM YOU KNOW NOT WHERE BUT YOU JUST DON'T CARE...I AM PRETTY SURE ALL OR MOST POETRY COMES THAT WAY ON AUTO PILOT...AT LEAST THAT IS MY EXPERIENCE OF IT...THE TRICK IS TO BE ABLE TO WRITE IT DOWN FAST ENOUGH BEFORE YOU LOSE IT...IT CAN BE VERY ELUSIVE AND EXCLUSIVE...IF YOU LOSE IT...IT'S GONE FOREVER OR SO IT SEEMS...
