Compete, Compare
We’re obviously different
But I still feel the need to compare, to compete
Though you were gone long before my birth
I’m pretty, you were beautiful
Although I’m bright, you were a genius
And comparing your talent to mine
Is comparing a cathedral to a shotgun house
You were even sadder than I
My jealousy overflows me
But there’s one way that I can surpass you
I’ll live far past my sell by date
Until I die of boredom
And am rancid inside
For that something you couldn’t do
