Myth of a Man (Song to ...)

I listen to you

Your words in the rain come through

Your words mean volumes to me

Words like streams pour endlessly

Lost in the air that blows in the breeze

Lost in the waves that travel the seas

Lost in the minds of men like me

And in the heart of femininity

She listens to you

Your words to her are the truth

You bring out the mother in her

Nurtures your soul and shows you to the world

She leads you to the stage

Holds your hand for you to be brave

After the crowd cheers and roars

Then you’re a child no more

He listened to you

Followed your every move

Sang along with your protest songs

Thought you could do no wrong

But he was there

When you sold your soul on air

With others he cursed and booed

You now are the fool

I listen to you

As the day breaks through

Your words kept me up all night

Tainted my heart, nourished my mind  

That’s why I wrote this song

To feel I can belong

Like the child I am

To the myth of a man
