Song Writing

I don’t even exactly know why I want to write songs...maybe just because I’m bad at it.

Something about song structure doesn’t sink into my brainstem. I can make words sound semi soothing but never piece together lyrics to make songs worth singing.

Maybe I’m insecure, or even nervous about my raw emotion. Maybe I’m a calloused nihilist with nothing pretty to say. Maybe I’m a self destructing narcissist with too much to say.

Trying to write about not being able to write songs feels ironic. It’s simple right? Verse chorus verse chorus.........you would think.

Maybe it’s for the love of Dylan and for the dislike of rhyme. I have too much time to sit and think of non rhyming rhymes to say the same sad shit I’ve always said.

From time to time I'll lay down a line and think that maybe I could could write five more...
