Mama heard noises, those sounds in the night
Growing much louder, they gave her a fright
Voices came calling, symphonies would play
Nowhere was an orchestra, much to mama’s dismay
No one to talk to, I think mama was cracked
But she insisted these noises, just keep coming back
Turns out she’s not crazy, not one little bit
The doctor, she said, put a finger on it
The music and voices, she heard them, quite clear
All on account of her musical ear
Musical ear syndrome (MES) describes a condition seen in people who have hearing loss and subsequently develop auditory hallucinations. (Google)

Too many stories, still left unheard
Too many lives taken, how very absurd
These days, passing by, have been such an extreme
Can’t wait for it to be over, this twenty-sixteen
A Starman, a Prince, George Michael, and more
Debbie and Carrie, Glenn, and Gabor
Rickman, Vaughn, Frey, and Ali
How many more could there possibly be?
Wilder and Palmer, Henderson, Thicke
Too many, too young, gone too quick
The days of our childhood, taken away
I wonder if God had it all planned this way
Perhaps he knew better, that we would survive
But I sure as hell wish, they were all still alive

You sang lullabies
With the setting of the sun
Music to my eyes

Turn it up much louder
Let the power take control
The rhythm of your heartbeat
The essence of your soul
Dancing to the music
Getting lost inside each note
Wait!
How did the singer really know
Just what it was you wrote?
