Listen (Swan Song)

[Verse 1: ODiN]
What a beautiful beat
You don't even need me
On the vocals (listen)

To the melodies
Flowing freely
My mind is a prison

And time's of essence
Because the rules on which I used to rely
Have echoed out and now my inner child is running wild

He wants to fight to keep the light shining even in the darkest night
Wants to let the beaming stars ignite
A spark inside my heart and I

Believe in love it's in my blood
Mixing up with Indica
As I look up, extend my arms
Trying to smother every star

They tell me I will make it far but not to heaven
That stories left untold will turn to hidden legends
And later on when my heart has gone the distance
I only wish I'll be with somebody who listens

[Hook: ODiN]
My life is written through my songs
But no one ever sings along
The only reason I'm not singing my swan song

And I'm content with living on but there is always something missing
I just need somebody to listen

[Verse 2: ODiN]
Today I woke up smiling
In my bed of dreams
With a silver lining
Embroidered in my sheets

I wish to live forever
With someone by my side
Why can't we stay together
Where memories collide?

I've longed for you, made songs for you
I honor you like God
I feel your love inside of mine
I've searched so long I'm going blind

And time
Has no meaning
But loneliness is maddening and that's the only thing I'm feeling

Comfort and protection
I want somebody's affection
I want somebody to hear me crying out without correcting

All the small things
Truth care, truth brings
Without talking
Words are confusing

So listen
To the melodies I'm whispering
Try to hear me through the distance
Acknowledge my existence

And I'll live for you forever
I'll try to love myself
I'll try to see this through
To the end
