searchin' for sumpin' ta find

i keep hearin'
a song in my mind
i keep fearin'
what i might find

i ain't so kind
i keep nearin'
the love that is blind
i keep tearin'
no true love i'll i'll find

but the song i sing
there in my head
when those voices ring
i fear that i'm dead
clear as a bell
it's a ring-a-ding ding
what the hell
ain't nuthin' but a chicken wing

my mind will take me
my mind will make me
my mind will foresake me
my mind might even let me
see me
be me

but it's my heart & my soul
my whole it'll take
ta' feel up that hole
for Christ's sake

so the song in my mind
has it's own rythmn & ryhme
that song has it's own time
that fear is unkind
still, i just might find
i got a heart
i got a soul
i got a whole
lot of me
if i can just see
if i can just be
ME

if i just keep writin'
if i just keep fightin'
those demons from hell
who knows?... oh well

i'm just a singer
an old wing dinger
i'm just a song in my mind
searchin' for sumpin' ta' find
& ta' ryhme

seekin' a song
forgettin the gone wrong
searchin' for where i belong
there in the words
there in the music
there in the chords
of an old geetar
not too far
from where i be
i just might find me

there in The Song
there where i belong
there where i'm strong
yup,
that's where Steve Be
