Hii welcome to my blog, today i'd like to talk about how FREAKING DIFFICULT expressing myself is.
I've always wanted to fiind myself in some way, but the thing is i don't really know where to search. Recently (that is about last summer) i started to try and make music/ try to write songs. Yet, i don't even know where to start! I mean i have the chords and everything but i can't findd the way to put my thoughts into words clearly enough that i could write lirycs. It is geniuently so frustrating.
One thing about me is that i know what I don't want to do but i don't really know what i WANT to do. I can't find exactly what i want to write about, so in result i don't write at all. I definitley give up too easily.
Even tho i think that at this point i'd even like to make a bad song, I'm still so scared of it being bad. But it also bothers me, how can art be bad if it's an expression of self? I don't even know what to think about this. When it comes to art that other people create, i am the LEAST judgemental person you'll ever meet, but when i see my own work, i suddenly see every little flaw and notice how stupidly embarassing everything about it is. I hate it so much!
if you have any tips about this, pls let me know in the comments
byee! <33

As an failed artist myself i completely get it, like we chase perfection so much and upon failing we simply loose motivation to follow our dreams to make smth worth remembering.
Just a silly advice but you can try setting aside time to write without judgment, focusing on the process rather than perfection.. idk if it'll work tho
Like your lyrics don't have to be super perfect, just authentic.
And sometimes, the act of creation itself can help assort your thoughts and stuff..
