NO USE FOR A NAME LYRICS

"Overdue"

The flowers have wilted on the sill,

And words have been kept so small and still.

And yet if the great opinion speaks,

Then sadly we nod our heads and agree.



Barely a mention of your name.

On deaf ears, a distant whisper.

Whatever, no one gets it.



It's already overdue,

You will not be heard by many now.

But I'll always be amazed

By every sound you ever made.



While building a tolerance to them,

You made sorrow sound like a good friend.

The well where the poison pen was drawn,

The same place you trusted then, but was gone.



Enemies battled in your mind,

Until all the bloodshed leaked down,

Dried up and rusted the fight.



It's already overdue,

You will not be heard by many now.

But I'll always be amazed

By every sound you ever made.

And since I did not know you,

I can only say but a few words.

Too bad they won't hear your song

That I've been singing all alone.
