Maybe the sun will rise, Maybe the stars will shine....



I'm on a huge Asa kick right now, and this song "Maybe" has been on replay for probably the past two hours, as "Jailer" and "Subway" from her earlier album were last night. "Maybe" begins:

THIS WORLD IS FULL OF PAIN
USERS AND THEIR USELESS WAYS
THERE’S PEOPLE DYING EVERYWHERE
CAN’T SOMEONE TELL ME WHO’S TO BLAME?
THERE NEVER USED TO BE
THIS MUCH ATTENTION TO SECURITY
UNTIL THE TERROR AND CATASTROPHE
AND NOW THERE’S GUNS AND WAR MACHINES
MAYBE THE SUN WILL RISE
MAYBE THE STARS WILL SHINE
NO ONE IS LISTENING
TO THE TRUTH OR IS IT JUST ME
I GUESS I MUST BEGIN FROM NOW
TO MAKE THAT CHANGE I ALWAYS SPEAK ABOUT

The rest of the lyrics can be found here.

You can buy the entire album, Beautiful Imperfection on Amazon here:
