A Voice in the Crowd

[john]

voice in the crowd

I'm sure the world's going crazy

Then again maybe it's me

What made sense torn in pieces

and then thrown away, here and there and everywhere

I'm not blind I feel

your eyes on me, your eyes on me

So you didn't think you'd see

this side of me, this side of me

One of life's candid snapshots

Playing out on voyeur TV

Another glimpse of the madness

That's crowding me, here and there and everywhere

I'm not blind I feel

your eyes on me, your eyes on me

So you didn't wait to see

this side of me, this side of me

One more voice among millions

Watching, and wanting to be

Paying the price, being different

Knowing they are here and there and everywhere

I'm not blind I feel

your eyes on me, your eyes on me

So you didn't need to see

this side of me, inside of me

This may be my favourite poem in PoemStuff so far!

[Steve]

I think this is a very good poem. However! I think it would be a superb lyric...

Go on John, record it...
