LISTEN
Listen
To the song here in my heart
A melody I start but can't
complete
Listen
To the sound from deep within
It's only beginning to find
release
Oh the time has come for my
dreams to be heard
They will not be pushed aside
and turned
Into your own all 'cause you
won't listen
Listen
I am alone at a crossroads
I'm not at home in my own
home
And I've tried and tried to say
what's on my mind
You should have known -
Now I'm done believing you
You don't know what I'm feeling
I'm more than what you made
of me
I followed the voice you gave to
me
But now I've gotta find my own
You should have listened
There is someone here inside
Someone I thought had died so
long ago
Oh, I'm free now and my
dreams will be heard
They will not be pushed aside or
worse
Into your own all 'cause you
won't listen
Listen
I am alone at a crossroads
I'm not at home in my own
home
And I've tried and tried to say
what's on my mind

tens and bens completely
separate.
Yeah, I'll be in a whole new tax
bracket.
We in recession but let me take
a crack at it.
