I fall in love with every pretty girl I know
Every girl that gives me a second glance
Makes me feel like I am not worthless

I fall in love with every girl on the internet
That responds to my messages with
"Oh god, Elijah you are so talented"

Why are these compliments so terrifying?
I cannot conceive a world where I am worth more than nothing

And I am stuck inside these songs
My lyrics outline my flaws
And I am more vulnerable than ever before
