Completely uninspired Not really sure what I aspire Draw inspiration from "here" But the wheels aren't cranking or turning I stare blankly, trying to think of something clever to say Nothing comes to mind The quotes don't ignite a spark They don't hit a mark So I sit and wait for something to come to me... Waiting, waiting, waiting Nothing. Wanted to say something about a battle But it all seems overused So it looks like I got nothing Wait a minute! Hey! I just got inspired by being uninspired I guess that's it for today...

Lonely, Stupid Girl

Dear Lonely, Stupid Girl He'll never love you the way you love him He'll never get that gleam in his eye And he'll never be excited to see you the way you want Dear Lonely, Stupid Girl You're too dumb to notice Too lonely to care But he'll never understand what you feel Dear Lonely, Stupid Girl He'll always tell you, you think too much Because his mind doesn't hold the capacity yours does It just isn't the same for him Dear Lonely, Stupid Girl Walk away and love someone new Someone who will love you the way you give love Someone who will understand that light that turns on every time you see them Dear Lonely, Stupid Girl Life is unfair and so is love He's too blinded by his actions to understand how you feel You have love too big for him to grasp Dear Lonely, Stupid Girl Take this letter as a word of advice You deserve better You have a heart too big for him to feel Dear Lonely, Stupid Girl

I want to speak out in fury But I know that won't get the best of you Because you control this cruel world And I'm only just a girl I have a dream and a pen And I intend to use it I have a voice and a sound But I'm not sure if I'm fit Because there are all these rules I'm supposed to follow But in truth, I feel like I'm being swallowed Being digested in a world of lies Stuck in a place where everyone wears buttons for eyes If I'm like me I can't make it I wasn't made with the rig
