Fear of Rejection

There\'s a song, here in my hands,

that I cannot find the chords for

There\'s a poem in my mouth

that has no words

Somewhere deep inside

where all my demons hide

There\'s a story I could tell

that won\'t be heard

There\'s ink smeared on my fingers

that never found a page

And paint splashed on my shirt 

that has no canvas

There\'s a rhythm in my fingers

that will forever linger

because the world is cruel

so I\'ve learned to take no chances.
