Steemit Open Mic Week 64 - Original song "Middle Aged Orphan"


Greetings again Steemians!

This week I figured I'd get away from covers and do an old originals written back in 2015. "Middle Aged Orphan". I wrote this song about how it feels to not have anyone like a grandparent or parent alive to turn to in your family. 


lyrics

Loneliness

When all of your elders have gone

You're too old to go to the orphanage

Baby that's just what you are

Loneliness 

When all of your heroes are dead

You are the hero instead

No one for you to call on


You gotta man up 

To be a middle aged orphan

Top dog of the whole family tree

You gotta be strong

To be a middle aged orphan

Caretaker of the whole family
