Why Aren't You Listening

(album: High In The Saddle - 2019)

The song has been sung
The deed has been done
God has not come
Why aren't you listening?

Deep inside I deal with struggle
As you've seen my mind gets muddled
And though I seem complicated
It's the reason I'm so hated
And though some may find me frightening
Others say I'm quite enlightening
And though you may find it shocking
I am still alive and rocking

The song has been sung (I'm still singin')
The deed has been done (We're still breathin')
God has not come (I'm still believin')
Why aren't you listening?

I hear you say you want to kill me
And still deep down I know you feel me
I try to cut through all the static
Still I feel a little panic
Please address my mental illness
And please tell me that you feel this
And though you may find it shocking
I am still alive and rocking

The song has been sung (I'm still singin')
The deed has been done (We're still breathin')
God has not come (I'm still believin')
Why aren't you listening?
Why aren't you listening?

It doesn't have to be mystical
Just as long as it's spiritual
No need for the ritual
Just as long as it feels magical
It doesn't have to be mystical
Just as long as it's spiritual
No need for ritual
Just as long as it feels magical

You're still singing
We're still breathing
I still believe in
Why aren't you listening?

The song has been sung (I'm still singin')
The deed has been done (We're still breathin')
God has not come (I'm still believin')
Why aren't you listening?
The song has been sung (I'm still singin')
The deed has been done (We're still breathin')
God has not come (I'm still believin')
Why aren't you listening?
Why aren't you listening?
