Now I'm Sad (Boo Hoo)

My concept of happiness is completely based on fiction

Accustomed to disappointment from the human condition

I’ve been fed exaggerated emotions

And I’ve taken them as wisdom

Romance has torn me a new one, and now I’m sad

Try and fish for some compliments

Try and find some self worth

Try to fall in love with another person

Try to be loved by the earth

But when you’re met with constant let downs

It feels like things can only get worse

Expectation tore me a new one and now I’m sad

Hindsight fucked me up

The past facilitates resentment

And I get told not to dwell on it

And to live for the present

Living in first person is hard

When you’re not on a track

And if the present is a gift

Then I want to send it back

Roger ebert said if you have to ask

What it symbolizes then it didn’t

And I try to work my way around this by being blatant

I’ve got tonnes of wasted metaphors across my writing pad

But the only thing I feel honest in expressing

Is the fact that I am sad
