So it seems I've lost the skill
With my words I've lost the will
Abandoned here, all alone
Words have left me far from home
My mind struggles to form a line
Maybe this is all a sign
Maybe I'm not a writer at all
Just a dancer at a masquerade ball
Pretending to be someone I'm not
Whilst on my tongue words do rot
They won't be used, won't fit together
I hope this curse won't last forever
I'm adrift on an ocean blue
At the mercy of the waves, it's true
Trapped inside a dark fairytale
Battered by the wind and hail
Bombarded with unfeeling letters
Who've left me here for something better
I can't rewrite the ending here
Is this the death of my writing career?
When I feel my ship is sinking
It sets my poor mind to thinking
Maybe this is not for me
Maybe I was too blind to see
But I'm far too stubborn to lose hope
With few phrases of faith I will elope
My writing will not desert my heart
I just need to play my perfect part
Where did you go? Please come back!
My wordsmith skills are under attack!
Shot in the heart with a logical arrow
But it's not the last you'll see of Sparrow...
