lyrics

One day, I woke up bright and early
I felt a bit inspired and wrote a story
When talking to myself, I thought you heard me
I walked you through the plot, but you ignored me

And though I haven’t gone and tied up the loose ends
Or fleshed out motivations of the characters within
I think I found a proper story arc
A fitting exposition and a perfect place to start

I thought it might be fun to add a twist
A surely unpredicted turn of events
As I started getting to the gist
You stopped me then explained exactly what happens

And though I haven’t gone and tied up the loose ends
Or fleshed out motivations of the characters within
I think I found a proper story arc
A fitting exposition and a perfect place to start

You said I should stop writing all those tiny little lies
That I’ll find inspiration based on someone else’s life
The pages that you write, need just to be observed
The story that you find will be the one you truly deserve

And though I haven’t gone and tied up the loose ends
Or fleshed out motivations of the characters within
I think I found a proper story arc
A fitting exposition and a perfect place to start
