Yeah, there’s a new theme. Thoughts?
On songwriting.
It takes a lot of effort to get the words out. But it’s that effort that makes it worthwhile. Some things I say are so raw and not thought out, and sometimes that’s good. But other times I toil over one small line that just needs a rhyme. The rhyming doesn’t always matter though.
