I haven’t been able to finish a song in a while and to be honest, I’d gotten into a slump with music - one of the most consistent aspects of my life for as long as I can remember.
I guess it was a combination of everything happening in my life for the past few months.
Sometimes I think we put too much pressure on things that we hold so close because we don’t want to see them go, when in reality it’s only in letting them go that we get to see them grow.
Sat down and wrote this in 10 minutes yesterday - it’s silly and it’s stupid, but I had so much fun writing it... and I learned a few things along the way.
For anyone struggling with finding that “spark,” this one’s for you!
Sending love always,
J.S.
LYRICS
This is my silly stupid song
I don’t give a sh*t how it comes out
But I know I’m having a good time
Playing with nobody around
In this little old gutted house
Each day seems longer than the one before
But week by week time feels real short
I just had an epiphany
All I wanna do is sing
At the top of my lungs
Now that was tragic
But I liked it
Flaws and all
Same goes for you
You get to choose
Which way you fall
Now it’s your turn, give it a try
Don’t make a great big deal of it
And when you’re stuck, don’t push your luck
Just leave it be, you’re onto the next thing
Don’t forget to have a good time
Life’s too short
To just ignore
The little things
You know, I can’t play guitar to save my life cause it’s hard
But I won’t let that stop me
This was my silly stupid song
Didn’t give a sh*t how it came out
But now we’ve made it to the end and I kinda like it
I might just play it out
