Rubbish: The Feeling of Frustration, Loss, and Disillusionment

"Rubbish" is a song that reflects the emotions I’ve gone through over the past few years-dealing with rejection, frustration, loss, disillusionment, and self-doubt. I was constantly told all the "rubbish excuses" for being rejected, and this track captures that struggle and the confusion I felt during that time. I hope it somehow resonates with your own experiences and brings a sense of connection to anyone who's felt the same way. - felicis
"Rubbish" lyric:
I’ve been drowning in this mess,
Love that’s broken, nothing left,
Told myself it wasn’t real,
But I still feel it, I still feel.
Fell for words, you pulled me in,
Now I’m stuck, I can’t win,
You threw it all away,
But I’m still holding on, it’s all just "rubbish…", anyway.
Never ready for the fall,
Gave it all, but lost it all,
Is it a mistake? Or just a lie?
I keep asking, but ".. No... no... no..." echoes in my mind.
No distinction, just the pain,
I’m left with nothing, all in vain.
It’s all rubbish, can’t break these chains.
All the lust, all the effort, gone down the drain,
You’re untouchable, like a dream I can’t sustain,
Just a ghost now, fading fast, nothing to hold,
I was told, it’s rubbish, that story’s getting cold.
Ba-ba-ba, don’t let go, hold on tight,
I’ll be fine tonight,
Stay strong now, I’m in control,
Don’t let go…
Gave you every piece of me,
Chasing dreams, but you just let me be,
Put my heart in your hands, you let it fall,
Now it’s fading…, like a dream that stalls.
Untouchable, out of reach,
Chasing shadows, I can’t preach.
All this effort, all this pain…
Now it’s just rubbish, washed down the drain.
Never ready for the fall,
Gave it all, but lost it all,
Is it a mistake? Or just a lie?
I keep asking, but ".. No... no... no..." echoes in my mind.
No distinction, just the pain,
I’m left with nothing, all in vain.
It’s all rubbish, can’t break these chains.
All the lust, all the effort, gone down the drain,
You’re untouchable, like a dream I can’t sustain,
Just a ghost now, fading fast, nothing to hold,
I was told, it’s rubbish, that story’s getting cold.
Ba-ba-ba, don’t let go, hold on tight,
I’ll be fine tonight,
Stay strong now, I’m in control,
Don’t let go…
The dream’s too big for just me now,
But I’ll rise… somehow.
No more holding on to pain,
I’m free from all the strain.
The past’s just a shadow,
I’ll rise, I’ll let it go...
It’s all rubbish, but now I’ll glow…
All the lust, all the effort, gone down the drain,
You’re untouchable, like a dream I can’t sustain,
Just a ghost now, fading fast, nothing to hold,
I was told, it’s rubbish, that story’s getting cold.
Ba-ba-ba, don’t let go, hold on tight,
I’ll be fine tonight,
Stay strong now, I’m in control,
Don’t let go…
[Outro]
Ba-ba-ba, I’ll be fine tonight...
Ba-ba-ba, I’ll be fine tonight...
It’s rubbish, but I’ll rise tonight…

Taking bad experiences & turning them into a song seems a really positive way to deal with them. I love it!
