"Then We Cry" a Hook original

Hook · February 13, 2012, 02:07:28 PM

Hello,
Been having a little trouble with my voice the last few days, not much in my higher register, I had to sing a song yesterday that had a G above treble C, which I usually can hit somewhat reliably, but unfortunately it had some disastrous results that led to some personal embarrassment. So rather than rest my voice ( I had to sing 3 hours this morning & 6 tomorrow) I thought I'd just sing lower! I wrote this yesterday before I became really depressed... go figure! Just me and my Dean Exotica live!

Then We Cry
written and performed by Hook

A Simple Life, It's not like I have one
Struggle & strife are constants like the atom
Some things we see others we just take for granted
We seem selfish in nature, almost as if someone planned it

We try for a spell
We lie all to well
& then we cry

It's not what you pictured & not at all how you planned
This happily ever after seems more like "The Running Man"
Back into the grind of constantly spinning gears
That play tricks on your mind a mirage of irrational fear

Chorus

I never can accept
I question all concepts except mine
I expect the expected
& can never comprehend what I find

Chorus

A Simple life, it's not like I have one
