 Great One--A "Love Song" re-write
"Love Song" by Sara Bareilles with a splash of brainstormer on Thoughts as it relates so well to so many including myself.
[Feel free to play the song and sing along.]

Head under pressure,
And they tell me...to not be so hard on myself.
But, words turn and turn on themselves, even III knooow thaaat.

You made room for me...but it’s too soon to see,
If I’m happy in your hands.
I’m unusually hard to hold on to.

Blank stares at blank screens.
No easy way to say what I mean.
You mean well, but you make this harrrd ooon meee.

I'm not gonna write you a great one,
'Cause you asked for it,
'Cause you need one, you see.
I'm not gonna write you a great one,
'Cause you tell me it's
Filling your free time.
And then, you’re on your way.
I'm not gonna write you to stay-ay-ay.
If all you do is reading,
I’m gonna need a better reason to write you... a great one...today.
Todaaay-ay-ay-ay.

I learned the hard way
That they all say...things you want to hear.
My heavy heart sinks deeeep dooown unnnderrr you.
And your...twisted words! Your...help just hurts!
You are not what I thought you were!
Hello...to hiiigh annnd dryyy.

Convinced me to please you.
Made me think that I need this too.
I’m trying to let you hear me as I am!

I'm not gonna write you a great one,
'Cause you asked for it,
'Cause you need one, you see.
I'm not gonna write you a great one,
'Cause you tell me it's
Filling your free time.
And then, you’re on your way.
I'm not gonna write you to stay-ay-ay.
If all you do is reading,
I’m gonna need a better reason to write you...a great one...today.

Promise me you'll leave the light on
To help me see daylight when my mind is gone.
'Cause I believe there's a way you can love me when I say,

I won't write you a great one,
'Cause you asked for it,
'Cause you need one...you see.
I'm not gonna write you a great one,
'Cause you tell me it's...filling your free time.
Is that why you wanted a great one?
'Cause you asked for it?
'Cause you need one for free?
I’m not gonna write you a great one,
'Cause you tell me it's boredom or death.
And then, your on your way.
I’m not gonna write you to stay-ay-ay.
If your heart is nowhere in it,
I don’t want it for a minute.
 People, I’ll dazzle and tell true
When I believe that there's a reason to,
Write you...a great one...today.
Todaaay-ay-a-ay.
