right now i think haley dahl from sloppy jane is on another level w/r/t lyricism. this stanza absolutely slayed me when i first heard it

sloppy jane lyrics from Genius:
You happened years ago now
But yesterday, I saw a man kicking a dog in the street
And from the distance, I thought
That you might be the man
And God, I wanted that dog to be me
