[Long Intro]

[Verse 1] 
I was scrolling through the sounds, 
Feeling love for what I found, 
Just tryin’ to lift some voices in the stream... 
Clicking hearts like they were candy, 
Feeling wholesome, fine and dandy, 
Then the screen won’t comply and crushed my little dream.

[Pre-Chorus] 
I just wanted to be kind, 
But the app said, “Never mind.” 
Apparently, I’m too supportive— That’s a crime?

[Chorus] 
Rate limit exceeded, My goodwill's been impeded, 
I’m too enthusiastic, And the server thinks I'm drastic. 
“Please wait before retrying,” 
Now I'm just sitting here sighing, 
A digital pariah with a heart too full— 
Guess love’s not executable.

[Verse 2] 
Now I’m stuck in like jail, 
While bots leave spam and never fail, 
And someone's dropping thumbs down on every track.
 I hit refresh, I plead my case, 
But the algorithm holds me in place—
 Like “Calm down, friend, you’re giving too much back.”

[Pre-Chorus]
 I just liked that funky beat, 
Now I’m banned from being sweet. 
What’s next? A captcha asking for my soul?

[Chorus] 
Rate limit exceeded, 
My support’s been unneeded, 
My empathy’s suspicious— 
My thumbs up, too ambitious! 
“Please wait before retrying,” 
The robots think I’m lying— 
Too much love in one account? 
Guess I broke the joy amount.

[Bridge] 
I just wanted to clap for Alex Curly’s vaporwave remix of Beethoven’s Fifth. 
I just wanted to say “Nice work, Eve Joy Love” on her country trap polka mashup. 
I was a fan. A big fan of LUDGE.
But now I’m locked out—
Like Skynet with a grudge.

[Long Solo]

[Chorus] 
Rate limit exceeded, My soul’s been auto-depleted, 
Just wanted to spread good cheer—
 But now I’m in timeout here. If caring too much is wrong, 
Then I’ve been right all along... 
Guess in the age of AI reaction, 
You can’t retry human interaction.

[Outro]
I hit “like” for Preoccupied style tone,
Cheered for Timotheus on my phone—
But now I’m stuck behind the glass,
'Cause I liked a Lucilius song too fast.
I love all their invention
And there are too many more to mention…

[softly, defeated]
…I just wanted to click one more.

[Outro]

[End Song]
