The Loneliness Of The Long Distance Songwriter

[Jim Colyer]

The Loneliness Of
The Long Distance Songwriter
Is a terrible
Burden to bear
You strive and strive
To get in front
Then realize
You're nowhere

The Loneliness Of
The Long Distance Songwriter
Is a horrible
Price to pay
For 3 minutes of fame
That dissolves into nothing
While you quickly
Watch it fade

All your songs
Slip into the past
As you write alone
In front of the pack

The Loneliness Of
The Long Distance Songwriter
Is a terrible
Burden to bear
You're out of style
You're yesterday's hit
And your relevance
Is history
