When I Listen

muddy waters

I listen to the blues to push you away

Nothing personal baby

Just it is so much easier that way

When I am feeling so blue

I just listen to the blues to push you away

~

See there is a horizon ahead

We all see it lay before our eyes

We all want to feel that special breeze

That one that lets us feel it’s ok

See there is a horizon just waiting up ahead

~

In the quiet light of the morning

I am listening to the music that moves me

Feeling the moments and triggers of my world

My reality is spoken through this melody

In the quiet light of a sunlit morning

~

I listen to the blues every day to push you away

Yet never believe it is you I want to shoo away

    We all find our escape to push others away. Sometimes it’s our only saving grace.

        Yes, but truly we all want someone we can hold close but hold them at a distance so they won’t see our deepest vulnerability — them.
