Last night, I had another fake existential crisis (I’m beginning to realize I probably have a disproportionately high amount of those ), this time surrounding the intro of a particular song. It was a horrid song, but it took me approx 24sec to realize that. Because the intro sounded almost identical to a song that I love with my whole heart. But the terrible song preceded the wonderful song by about five years. I may or may not have fallen to the ground and screamed a little bit. (I did.)
Today, as I was hopping out of the shower, my brain just sang “24 seconds for a heartbreak!” and I was like...oh. So then I shuffled on over to a guitar and found out that it was musically a Boring Bob. But I let it come out anyway, because if you repress your terrible ideas, then they get stuck inside you and they don’t leave room for other stuff to come out. Plus, sometimes Bobs are A-okay. Sometimes you wanna dress them up and make them interesting, but this song just wanted to stay a Bob. So I let it.
Lyrics: days fly by just stay on the gRind one day you’ll find what you’ve looked for all your life
years go by rivers run dry one day you’ll wind up what you’ve workEd for all your life
24 years just to get right here but i’m afraid it wasn’t worth the wait ‘cause just 24 hours have killed the flowers and there’s no one more fickle than fAte 24 weeks without much sleep you say you’re moving on now, to better things you can spend years and years trying to shake the pain but it just takes 24 seconds for a heartbreak
to Love and lose is not like you but what can you do when things are out of your hands?
from black and white to black and blue life Lessons learned through high prices, high demands
24 years just to get right here but i’m afraid It wasn’t worth the wait ‘cause just 24 hours have killed the flowers and there’s no one more fickle than fate 24 weeks without much sleep you say you’re moving on now, to better things you can spend years and years trying to shake the pain but it just takes 24 seconds for a heartbreak
let's do it again another lifetime spent on Futile attempts but we’ll do it anyway
headed fast for a head-on crash we know this can’t last but we will always hopE for change
24 years just to get right here i really hope that it was worth the wait ‘cause just 24 hours have killed the flowers but there’s no one more fickle than fate 24 weeks without much sleep i think i’m moving on now, to better things you can spend years and years trying to shake the pain but it just takes 24 seconds for a heartbreak 24 seconds for a heartbreak 24 seconds for a heartbreak
