(v1)
Kurt Cobain gave me a name
when I started writing again
So I hearken hearken hearken
the sound
with grunge gargled noise
lights out, dive and drowned

(Chorus)
Your songs fade to red
shades of colors
words unsaid
years missed
died too young
he had been a musical son

(v2)
A shadow of doubt
til Kurt Crossed my head
singing a song, "All Apologies" said,
In Room 27 to live
A lifetime, a musical gift.

(Musical Breakdown)
Colored Quick Black and Grey
Here we are,
entertained today
years missed
where'd you go
Oh I know I know I know
-YEA EAH YEAH EAH YEA EAH YEA

Your songs fade to red
shades of colors
words unsaid
years missed
died too young
he had been a musical son

(v3)
More than a man
not quite a god
Shades of Cobain Have got me all wrong
I hear the music
here I go
Kurt, tell me all you know

Your songs fade to red
shades of colors
words unsaid
years missed
died too young
he had been a musical son

The following poem you do not read the words in Parenthesis they are just words that give more meaning to the overall sentence however not reading them keeps the poem flowing... thanks


They ask me;
Who (are you),
and where (are you going)?
I absently tell them;
I'm just too impaired.
-------------------------------
I'm struggling more,
with my daily life;
My future is slips farther.
Fading from my sight,
into an abyss.
Darkness I dismally missed,
I'd rather disappear,
than feel like this.
I'm still going nowhere,
I can't remember where I've been.
What am I doing?
When will it end?
