[Lyric] The Picket Fence ( ilomilo )

[Intro, Spoken]
(I just, I don't know
My poems used to be just so pointless and fun, but now
They've gotten emotional, and it just
Makes me wonder if I'm too emotional
Like, I know I'm not perfect
I'm not perfect, I'm not perfect, I'm not perfect)

[Verse 1]
If you couldn't tell, I'm not perfect
If I want somethin', is it even worth it?
I write and write, all damn night
But for what? The rights? Nah, that ain't it
Let me search a little bit

[Chorus]
I don't care about the picket fence
They're lame, and too dense
I don't care about being perfect
'Cause what if they just nerf it? What if they nerf it?
[Verse 2]
So plain, so boring, these people have me snoring
Where's the originality? A different nationality, sexuality
Cis, white straight men have it great
Am I missin' somethin'? Was I late?
'Cause I'm not too sure about this fate

[Chorus]
No, I don't care about the picket fence
They're lame, and too dense
I don't care about being perfect
'Cause what if they just nerf it? What if they nerf it?

[Bridge]
I need to know the answer, why they're all so picky
This pit that I've fallen in has become too sticky
Everyone looks the same in this city
My only problem is, that's fuckin' shitty

[Outro]
Who's behind this? Who's the problem?
Please, please, someone stop them
Clichés suck, and my life is one
