“There’s so much I want to say to you”
Written and performed by Sandra Susser
“How astonishing it is that language can almost mean,
and frightening that it does not quite.”
– Jack Gilbert
“Always be yourself. Unless you can be a unicorn.
Then always be a unicorn.”

Music and Lyrics by Randall Benichak
Associate Lyricists Anna Strasser and Gerald Benichak
Randall would like to thank his neighbor Allan (not his real name) and his brother Richmond Wesley (definitely his real name) for inspiring this piece. He would also like to dedicate this song to our men and women in the armed forces; they battle true terror so that our battles are only amongst ourselves.
