Saorsa

Tribute to the band that has saved me over and over again.

When I could not find understanding from the world

I turned to the crooning growl that shouted the

Anthem of all my pain--the man who seemed to

Get the disconnect between society and an Idiot’s brain

Who spilled blood, fire, and passion from a roaring guitar

Plucking strings of his own beaten up heart

So that we could heal

Now, with earbuds thumping I do not feel so alone

On dark nights when skeletons

Come out to play and make me feel like a carcass

Waiting to be picked clean

He is my daily dose, my medicine of punk pop

Riot on the radio that liberates

My sweating mind

He is

My soarsa

My salvation

My escape and

My reason

To continue walking this earth

                                 Thank you, Billie - Rhiannon Strayer

If you do not like Green Day that is perfectly fine. However, I do ask that any reviews or comments are geared toward the actual writing rather than the subject and content. Everyone has different tastes and preferences when it comes to music and art. All should be respected. Thank you!!
