i’m buying groceries just for me
and when i think i wanna leave
i get the train to twelfth street
it sets my mind at ease
i don’t think i’m built for the books
or the professors’ dirty looks
and i hate the picture i took
cos there was nothing there
when your hair fell before your face
and i lost my way
i’m not sorry it’s not what i wanted
but i think i’m doing fine
you’re not sorry just try to be honest
cause it’s just not worth my time
i’ll cut my hair i’ll change my clothes
wait no i won’t
the light is different here
and if it’s blue i never fear
but if i keep myself near
my skin keeps staying clear
i can’t fit into my clothes
but i like how they don’t know
that i don’t know chinatown from soho
and they ask the way
and i say “sorry, i don’t know”
and they let me go
i’m not sorry it’s not what i wanted
but i think i’m doing fine
you’re not sorry just try to be honest
cause it’s just not worth my time
i’ll cut my hair i’ll change my clothes
wait no i won’t
i hope you’re happy
hope you marry
hope your film gets shown in paris
wait no i don’t
i’ll move away
180 days
and i’ll get back before you know
not before you go

and i know i miss the city
and i sure miss feeling pretty
and i feel funny getting messy at
parent sanctioned parties
am i sick or am i tired
is it just the way i’m wired
and do you hate me and my body
were you lying
aren’t you sorry?
i want nothing less than everything
i hate your novels like my bruised up shins
i want something more than anything
i love the sun
and my burning skin
i’m thinking about moving
because buying plants was soothing
and i’m too tired for the movies
so i just listen til i’m sleeping
are you nice or are you boring?
is your posture self-assuring?
and do you watch it in the mirror?
do the others make you bitter?
i want nothing less than everything
i hate your poems like you love berlin
i want something more than anything
i love the sun
and my burning skin
