Post Info TOPIC: Well enough alone
Jack O'Brien

Date:
Well enough alone


Trains ride on tracks
Planes glide on air
My soul is like a ghost to me
I can't see it anywhere
Like candles that burn
Leave behind no wax
I know I am here
Not how long I will last
I can be a friend or the enemy
Sometimes when I wake
I wonder why I'm still me

Then I try to fix what isn't broken
Straighten out what isn't bent
Question all the beauty of
What is Heaven sent
There's a peace of mind
I my never know
If I could just leave
Well enough alone


I roll in my sleep
Like I'm rolling downhill
Walk the house room by room
To make life be still
The sun will soon shine
My smile looks out of place
In the mirror I see a man
But I don't recall the face
Bigger things by now I should have done
Carefully I plan the day
Thankful it's only one

Then I try to fix what isn't broken
Straighten out what isn't bent
Question all the beauty of
What is Heaven sent
There's a peace of mind
I my never know
If I could just leave
Well enough alone


Pieces of my mind I cannot find
Pieces of my life I do not mind
It seems that I was always living proof
Heart has no thought
It cannot be told what to do

Still I try to fix what isn't broken
Straighten out what isn't bent
Questioning the beauty of
What is Heaven sent
There's a peace of mind
I my never know
If I could just leave
Well enough alone

I agree with Ronnie Banks, Jack this song should be right in our face.


Remix vocal up, re-enter this song.


Or just leave well enough alone.

Yea, I'll leave it be for now. That song/recording is three years old, did ya know that? Thanks for your input, it helps solidify some of my issues with that tune/mix/structure.

        You are wrong Jack. I am obviously a "Somebody" you feel the need to lash out at.


        Good spelling btw, and all lower case letters, not to mention poor sentence structure.

I think folks call it stating the obvious. Your nick is "Nobody" I said you was "nobody", little flicker of light happening yet?
