And Then the Music Stopped

Just like this familiar song
That was never sung in tune, 
Tell me, “Where do I belong?“ 

Scrolling this random playlist
Unplayed in my memory, 
Bringing weight on my crumped chest.

As boring as this classic melody, 
Everything became stodgy--
Music stopped in tragedy.
