Repetitive

Sometimes I feel I'm repetitive.

All of my words come out stale.

Sometimes I feel I'm repetitive.

It's like a Goodwill sale.

Everything's been used before.

Like themes of love, death, sorrow and war.

Sometimes I feel I'm repetitive.

Is repetition the key to learning?

People tell me it is, but I'm so competive

Feels like my learning is burning.

Everything's been used before

Like that line, it's such a bore.

Sometimes I feel I'm repetitive

Have I already used that word?

Sometimes I forget that I live.

Sometimes I wonder if that's absurd.

Everything's been used before

Maybe it's just a shadow of another's lore.

Sometimes I feel I'm repetitive.

All of my words come out stale.

Sometimes I feel I'm repetitive.

Is repetition the key to learning?

Sometimes I feel I'm repetitive

Have I already used these words?

Sometimes I feel I'm repetitive.

Everything's been used before.

Have I been used before, too?

Is that why I'm

already rung dry

with no new ideas to milk?
