Short Fictions - Every Moment of Every Day

You Will Never Be the Best at Anything You Try (Surely Not)

I can only be so convincing
I want this so genuinely
I could write a song in a day that I know you would like
But it all means so much more to me
No, simple chords or melodies
Might hit a million streams but it don't feel right
And you live 300 miles away
And you never spoke to me that way before
The occasion might arise but I'm not holding my breath
So I know it may sound insincere
I'm so glad just to be here with you
Who am I trying to impress?

I never thought at 23 I'd feel this bad
But I never take for granted times we've had
And all the time that I spent wishing I were dead
I'm gonna take it back now, I'm sorry that I never said
That you've made a life that's worth living
On bad days I've got friends to see
On good days I forget the end is so near
So I'll learn to appreciate the people who tell me the way they feel
I never said we had to be the best (and we're surely not)
