Uninspired

sometimes it flows like a river  
other times not even a trickle  
guess I'm a bit dry at the time  
over thinking, under performing  
also have to be a fucking mind reader  
like I'm Goldilocks or something  
this one's too dark, this one's too sad  
and even when it's just right  
I will still pick it apart bit by bit  
do I use too many metaphors?  
or is it all just trash?  
fuck if I know  

sorry, bitch  
I'm just uninspired  
I'll reach your heart some other day  
guess in away you'll never see  
and i'll never know  
 
I want to write about ghost  
or maybe a serial killer  
could talk about fucking whores  
letting off nut after nut  
but some don't get it  
don't want people to take me too serious  
it's just a fantasy  
mixed with some reality  
maybe that makes me a liar  
I say I'm a troubled artist  
others say I'm an immature over grown child  
 
sorry, bitch  
I'm just uninspired  
I'll reach your heart some other day  
guess in away you'll never see  
and i'll never know  
 
it could come to me tonight  
the winds of old carrying me to light  
telling tales of wondrous delight  
shredding the inner workings of a soul  
to be reborn a flying ferret  
or some bullshit like that  
till then I guess this is what you'll get  
a whole lot of blah mixed with nothing  
that will reach no one  
but it makes me feel something  
like an unexpected fuck in the sun
