About a Song

I heard a piece of advice
It said tell the truth
Then make it rhyme
It sounds easy
But who can do that all the time

I dug around for a notebook
It's that and my guitar tonight
A few hours later
I don't think I'm doing this right

Cause it's hard just to write some things down
Let alone make them come out my mouth
If no-one else hears this
Then I never figured it out

But I never do
How do you

I ain't scared to say what I think
But I know not to show how I feel
Feelings just feel like a weakness
That I should conceal

But don't read too much into this
I'm not doing the best that I can
If that's something y'all can't understand
I don't give a damn

Y'all don't even know who I am

One more thing

Why do my songs always sound so depressing
And who the hell am I trying to be
I guess living the good life
Is too good for someone like me

And how self-absorbed must I be
With just two half-assed verses
And I can't sing the same shorus twice
If y'all can't sing along to this song
I guess that's alright

It's all I came up with tonight
