Hum(When you don't know what to write, write about not knowing what to write)

Hum – Franklin Taggart written in January 2012

This could be an interesting day

I’ve got your attention, but nothing to say

I could take you for a tour of my psyche

But it wouldn’t be much of a ride

I could spit out my deepest emotions

But then I’d be empty inside

I could sing you a story with a cut and dried moral

But preaching just isn’t my style

So I wonder if you wouldn’t mind

If we look at each other and hum for a while

Chorus: mmm, mmm, mmm, mmm

I could sing you a song about politics

But that’ll never change the world

I could sing about lovers and heartbreak

But there’re too many songs about heartless boys and girls

I could sing you a song about crying

But I’d rather go for a smile

So I wonder if you wouldn’t mind

If we look at each other and hum for a while

I could sing you a hymn about the glory of heaven

But I’m far too enchanted with hell

I could sing you a song for the ages

But this morning ain’t going so well

I could give you a false sense of anything hopeful

But truth kicks the ass of denial

So I wonder if you wouldn’t mind

If we look at each other and hum for a while
