Is it Cliché?

lyrics

Verse 1
I'm getting really sick of writing all these angsty songs
Why can't I just write lyrics of lovers getting along
I've spent my whole life trying to be a better person
I've spent my whole life trying to be a better man
My insecurities they haunt me
They're tearing me apart
Despite the smile on my face there's days I wanna stop my heart when I look in the mirror I see the problems I've amassed
When I want to starve myself I have to break the glass

Pre chorus
What if I never write a better song than this
What if my morals start to go amiss
Do I do this for the money so I do it for the fame
If I don't focus on these lyrics my thoughts will go insane

Chorus
Is it cliche to say
That music saved my life
Am I carried away
Exploiting moments of strife
I hope I'm wrong
I hope these songs last when I'm long gone

Verse 2
Sometimes when I run, my mind will go blank
Am I running from my problems or just to stay awake
Because it's hard to tell if I'm closer to success
I'm going backwards, standing still, of sprinting in distress
Am I original, or original sin
Do I live life for myself or do I live it for them
My idols and my saints, am I real or am I fake
I guess you'll have to tell me so I'll sit here and wait

Pre chorus
