Oh mess, here I've been trying as hard as I can to get the same syllable counts.
Its okay, I've scrapped that song anyways. Its really hard to get a song I can get behind but I'm thinking this will be the round that I really try and experiment because I'm getting tired of doing the same style.
Except it really does. A perfect flow in a song can elevate a 5 in lyrics to a 7. There's a REASON meter is a thing y'know. It works together with lyrics and emotion and you need all three to have a good song

I've never heard a song and been like "god damn that's an amazing meter"
Also **** last.fm glitched and now this song has 26 plays instead of 13.
You have about 30 hours until the deadline, so, depending on your schedule, you could write something from scratch if you really want to
Well I think I'm going to try to just write and then go back and rework it to fit better with one of the labels.
I initially really wanted a Tinashe-level R&B song but its too much of a stretch for me to write (even though I listen to that kind of music all the time).

Yeah, I feel you. Most of my library is r&b but I've only written 2 r&b songs in my life
I'm still very ignorant as to what "meter" is and I couldn't give a damn. I sense nothing in your lyrics other than words, to which I create my own rhythm, or at least attempt to.
Going through an external hard drive I found in a box of old things and it has all my old writings from like ages 10-18. I found one I wrote when I was 13 . I'm legit in hysterics
My Number
Chorus:
I have to change my number
Orange to O2
I can do without you
On my missed call list
I need to delete the ring tone
That I associate with you
The vibration in my pocket is
Getting on my last screw
So the best thing is
That I don’t give you my new number
Verse 1:
Call me in the morning at three
When I’m fast asleep
You ruined my peace
I dreamt that I owned a Lamborghini
Call me when I’m having a shower
Make the shampoo burn my eyes
Talking about Tom and Shauna
I’d rather continue to revitalise
Pre-chorus:
When I’m watching TV
All I hear is ring ring
Feel like throwing my phone
Out the window
I could put it on silent
But then you’ll knock on my door
You better stop now
Before I decide that…
Chorus:
I have to change my number
Orange to O2
I can do without you
On my missed call list
I need to delete the ring tone
I associate with you
The vibration in my pocket is
Getting on my last screw
So the best thing is
That I don’t give you my new number
Verse 2:
Call me at the shopping mall
Whilst I’m in the fitting room
You must be a fly on the wall
Cause you know I’ve got the wrong size shoe
Call me when I’m having dinner
Here we go again with Shauna
You say I used the wrong curry powder
Can you get any louder?
Pre-chorus:

All I hear is ring ring
Feel like throwing my phone

Bridge:
Why do you ring me
At the most awkward times?
You be tripping
You put a load on my mind
You’ve got a mental issue
Oprah cannot fix you
Please do me a favour
Permanently delete my number
Chorus:
I have to change my number
Orange to O2
I can do without you
On my missed call list

Contestants that use better meter always get better scores. That's been the main thing I've helped people on this season and whenever I do their songs always get WAY better even if the meaning of the lines doesn't change (and this is reflected in their scores given)
Anyways just got back from my date with the other guy and he's so cute
You must be a fly on the wall
Cause you know I’ve got the wrong size shoe
Call me when I’m having dinner
Here we go again with Shauna
You say I used the wrong curry powder
