The Sounds That we Don't Hear

How do we find them?

Come aboard the expression express

For when rigid steps taken, all inhibitions thereafter may be ridden

Have a seat, have a drink, be content, care less.

Between train cars lie notes that will stress

Freedom lies only inside. The rest, forbidden.

Come aboard the expression express.

Fortune favours the bold, I guess

Therefore just four tunes aren’t hidden

Have a seat, have a drink, be content, care less.

Yes, I address, there is more to access,

But there lies dissonance; keep the lid in.

Come aboard the expression express.

All your passengers find solace and progress?

12 is fine, yet all melodies thridden,

Have a seat, have a drink, be content, care less.

Heretics claim more is best, they press;

I can assure you less is more, lest they fit in.

Come aboard the expression express,

Have a seat, have a drink, be content, care less.
