Romantic Lyrics by Masukified

Disappointing My Mom

2020

[Spoken Word]
My heart is occupied by a pianist
You could tell he wasn't the best, but he loved to play
He loved the way each note felt like a friend, asking
"How are you today?"
And everywhere I go, I hear him
When things go alright, the chords sound bright
But a sting to my heart means a sting from the music
So everything I do is accompanied by a score,
Every move that I make, for better or for worse
Orchestrated in my mind, a blessing and a curse
We've been through a lot, but we've been through it together
Major chords for my victories, minor chords for my heartbreaks
Little riffs for each rush, and when it feels like too much
For my head, I remember
An abundance of music is better than no music instead
Every single day, he played
And just when I thought he might finally need a break
I met you
And suddenly, that soloist because a full orchestra
And they played with a passion I've never experienced before
I'll never forget the sound of violas and harps playing the first time I saw you
The violins sang when I admired the subtle features of your face
The cellos bellowed when you called for me
The woodwinds fluttered when I woke up next to you each morning
And the horns echoed proudly every time we felt, well
For so long, the music was at its peak
As if my brain had become a 5.1 surround sound system
With my heart for a subwoofer
And hearing the orchestra play for me and for you could never get old
Until you left
Then, the pianist who had been there
Watching when my heart sank and when it soared
Became a soloist once more
Days became dark and nights became long
And somehow, he continued with the song but it felt
Different
It felt like there was a force in him that pushed him to play
But each stroke of a key brought him unbearable pain
He didn't want to, but he needed to
This continued for as long as I could remember
Time became a blur
And I felt like everything I worked to build
Crumbled at the sound of you closing the front door behind you for the last time
I was so sure that my life didn't revolve around only you
Until it felt like it did
The only thing I knew for sure was that the music kept playing and playing
Da da da da da da da
Wait
That was it
We realized at the same time
The music keeps playing
Once again, the score changed
Same pianist, same head, same heart, different motivation
A new and crucial rejuvenation that rattles my chest with reverberation
He plays as if the lyrics start to rhyme
As if it's the only thing that occupies his mind
He plays as if he's running out of time
He plays as if the notes are simply falling into line
He plays this way because he knows
We're going to be fine
