“Out of Tune” was meant to be the headline tune of an “EP” of mine that I never actually came back to working on. As it is, it’s not a complete song, but it’s fine to publish as poetry. I’ve written so much free verse poetry that I figured I may as well share it. Like some others I’ve finally gotten around to putting out there, "Out of Tune" is made up of drafted lyrics that have not yet been put to song. This one is from 2005.

Here alone in this room
Feels more like I'm trapped
Buried within an emotional tomb
Completely out of tune
With everything and it's
No doubt coming soon
The realization I'm needing
Something that will
With the rhythm and beat
Bring me back into tune
What happened to the moon
It's pitch black outside
Well, no doubt pretty soon
It'll even be this dark
On the longest day at noon
The light gone from my world
Hopelessly out of tune
All the once exciting
Has left me so bored
