lyrics

"I just got my hopes up and dashed. I'm just a sucker I guess"
These are lyrics resounding in my head.
Am I unoriginal?
Why, yes.
It's just weird that something someone else wrote years ago applies more than anything I can come up with now.
Like, how'd they even do that?

It's not even some great insight on the human experience, it's just ubiquitous, yeah everyone thinks it at some point. It's just no one ever put it into words so perfectly.
Yeah no one ever put it into words so perfectly!
So articulate for me how I feel.
Articulate for me please how IIii feeel.
Articulate for me please, yeah, in song and melody
Cause I can't seem to do it for MMYYYYYY

self.
