Okay, my second song in two days. I wrote it this afternoon while I was watching "Persepolis." In case you're not familiar with it, it's about a girl growing up in Iran during the revolution.

The lyrics kind of reflect that.

Lyrics:
With a pen in my hand I can make a last stand
And these words that I shout, if you can't figure it out
This is me
What the hell'd you wanna see
If you can strum a guitar you can show who you are
I'll keep writing my songs if you keep singing along here with me
We can make the world believe

Hey...what to say?

They say life is a lie, you can hide if you try
But you make no mistake, this is no easy break
This is real
So you can live or you can kneel
So if you have a voice then there's only one choice
You can stand up and scream or give up on your dreams, take you pick
There's little time so make it quick

Hey...what to say?

So you can stay up all night trying to make your world right
Or you can get out of bed keep going right on ahead
This is real

With a pen in my hand I can make a last stand
And these words that I shout, if you can't figure it out
This is me
What the hell'd you wanna see
If you can strum a guitar you can show who you are
I'll keep writing my songs if you keep singing along here with me
We can make the world believe

Hey...what to say?
