What About Me?

There is no demo for this song.

Liner Notes

Potential song for my existing rock opera

Lyrics

What about me? I was once your best friend With you ‘til the very end Now you treat me Like a nobody

What about me? It was I who started it Without me you wouldn’t get Anywhere at all You will likely fall

Everything you touch Will come crashing down Think it’s a bit much? I think you’re the clown

They will turn on you Just you wait and see Don’t think that is true? My advice is free

What about them? They can’t even speak aloud You see them as weak and cowed But they are the backbone Think about what you’ve done

What about them? You won’t let them speak their mind Now forever left behind Cast away like trash Burned up into ash

Ooh, now I want to hear the rest of the opera! Love the way the song pivots from "What about me?" to "What about them?" around the verse that starts "They will turn on you" -- that's some A+ songsmithery right there! Great stuff!
