Bigger Than Us (unfinished)

They whisper, asking why do I do it?
Why do I waste my time on a hopeless dream?
I don't even know what I'm doing,
and, "My God, she can't even sing!"

They can't figure me out, what I'm all about,
they say I'm so absurd.
Why do I feel the need to hum a melody
and have my words be heard?

Well, you might say that I'm crazy,
that's okay, I know I wear it well.
There's just something about a symphony
that makes my heart swell.
But don't tell me I'm not worthy.
I'm not foolish just because I believe
in something bigger than me.
