No Concern Of Mine

from Rough But Ready by Ross Mayhew

lyrics

i see people strive to be seen more than the sun
i see ambition killing love
i see a world where a hand won't rest
unless you’re the best
i see poetry lay in the simplest of phrases
i see anthologies cut to a few pages
i see what i write go largely unsaid
the truth won't raise it's head
and whatever you may think of me
is no concern of mine

i see people reduced to how they appear
i see them dance till their souls disappear
i see them start fights they don't hope to win
the revolution never begins
i see rain become a metaphor for tears
i see every day trapped within it's year
i see a world where no one wants to be
so i'll let myself be me
and whatever you may think of me
is no concern of mine

when the world falls down
and nobody else is around
will you be able to find yourself

i see waves rise higher than the land
i see millions dying, no one gives a damn
i see the need to buy more than is sold
so i'll take my soul off the shelf
i see the leafs fall down and grow again
i see the day go by in a spin
i see fire burning all around
but my worries they can't be found
and whatever you may think of me
is no concern of mine
i don't need to know what you think you see
because she loves me
