I’m fidgeting with the AUX cord of my headphones It’s because music is only blaring through one of the ears It’s strange To my left, I can hear the sonorous warcry of a singer To my right, I only hear a contemptful whisper from a dark corner of my mind To my left, I hear a percussionist beating the drums and cymbals To my right, all I hear is the sound of tears bursting against the floorboards To my left, a moving melody accompanies a soulful serenade To my right, there is only empty static to fill an eerie silence Maybe I should consider getting these old things repaired Or getting a new pair entirely Oh, would you look at that! I finally managed to fix it Now everything is alright again.

AUX Cord
I’m fidgeting with the AUX cord of my headphones It’s because music is only blaring through one of the ears It’s strange To my left, I can hear the sonorous warcry of a singer To my right, I only hear a contemptful whisper from a dark corner of my mind To my left, I hear a percussionist beating the drums and cymbals To my right, all I hear is the sound of tears bursting against the floorboards To my left, a moving melody accompanies a soulful serenade To my right, there is only empty static to fill an eerie silence Maybe I should consider getting these old things repaired Or getting a new pair entirely Oh, would you look at that! I finally managed to fix it Now everything is alright again.
Music helps me through most rough patches, but lately my headphones have been acting up.
