TITLE (EDIT)
Live For Your Own Lyrics
DESCRIPTION
I was thinking about this one guy I know that is kind of a loner. We went on a community tour with some of our classmates and he just lit his cigarette and walked over to a big rock several hundred yards away, listening to his CD player. I wanted to reach out to him, and dig beneath the surliness. This was the result.

Live For Your Own Lyrics
Desi Williams

You're sitting out on that windswept crag
Inaccessible
Dead to the world
with someone else's lyrics
pulsing through your head
I want so much to carefully
pick my way across the rocks
and tap you on the shoulder
You'd look up, slightly startled
Opening your ears
and I'd offer my cigarette
Plopping down with my legs dangling
over the crashing waves far below
A thin stream of smoke wafts around our heads
and I'd lean over and whisper,
"Speak to me. I want to hear your words."
I'd softly say,
"Come back to something worth living for."
