All The Songs

i love music
 
i know
everyone does
but i really do
 
nothing can soothe me as much as
the right song at the right time
(and on the opposite end)
nothing can disgust me
more than obviously shitty music
 
but i guess that’s subjective
as Nickleback keeps packing stadiums
and my brilliant buddy Henry is
livin’ on end’s meat
 
the one thing that bothers me most
when i ponder my own death
is thinking of all the songs
i will never get to hear
 
i’ve never been one to believe
all the good music has already been made
 
but i also think of all the songs
that were written before i was born
before recorded music
 
forgotten songs
written by forgotten men
 
so i’ve made it my priority in life
to hear as much music as possible
 
records
cds
tapes
youtube videos
 
all the songs i can listen to
before the dastardly prince of death
comes to bring me silence
