Song #3: Messages

You told me that music
Is a form of narcissism
And people write for impact
And expect others to listen
You told me they won't listen
They're just in it for the beats
They're not in it for the message
To think different is naive

Then you tell me I'm a fool
I tune you out

You tell me to listen to you
I call you a hypocrite
You say that you just speak the truth
I say you just spew bull****
You cite Dylan, Joni Mitchell
And the message they conveyed
How if people really listened
The world would have been saved

You say Bob Dylan was a fool
I tune you out

You say talking won't change anything
Singing won't change anything
This music won't change anything
And I try my very best
To prove you wrong
While unsung, unspoken
Life goes on
