Okay well lemme pray for our entry now. I actually really liked limited/free-spirited though and so did someone else who saw the song. At the very least I don't think it was forced.
I can see your point for everything else though, especially round 1. I actually felt the same thing with the transition line you talked about.
Overall I'm shook for this entry now when I was slightly confident before dsfndjag everyone who saw it liked it and when we got critiques from ceremonials I did my best to apply every single one of them to the final draft but I guess it didn't work
A torturous mess.
