Unfinished, and now gone
Played your last note and moved on You couldn't sing, your mother had said
Your unschooled hands fought that which fed
The cloud you wore above your head But you thought you'd beat anything
It was etched on your brain
That the sun follows rain You could've been, you could've done
So much to win you should've won Unfinished life
And unfinished dreams
And an unfinished waste
Or now so it seems Useless cause, a pointless fight
Unless you pause to see the light What secret seed confused the tree
And cast a curse you couldn't see
The first pancake has to be And the once-oft too-beaten dog
Who just seeks a soft caress
Tries so hard to impress I hear your song and start to cry
So much went wrong and I ask why Unfinished life
And unfinished dreams
But your song will be heard
Or now so it seems
