you are my everything: my black spaceship crashing into the sun. i know i sound pretty pathetic, but some of us don’t have college to look forward to. i don’t belong here with all these people and their friends. i don’t belong here, i am listening to Wrens. someday i’ll find myself back at home. yeah i’m a loser but i’m calling you. you say to me through the phone “didn’t you go to school?” i said i did but i didn’t like it as much as i like you. aren’t you impressed? aren’t i impressive? let’s get bold, let’s get nervous, let’s get happy, let’s get curtis, let’s make our way down to the quarry and dance until someone can’t see, let’s pretend that the hostages in that video are all laughing at me, let’s pretend that your parents aren’t separated; they’re just playing strangers at the hotel bar and this time it goes too far. i don’t belong here, i am listening to Wrens. someday i’ll find myself back at home. yeah i’m a loser but i’m calling you. you say to me through the phone “didn’t you go to jail?” i said i did but i didn’t like it as much as i like you. aren’t you impressed? aren’t i impressive? i used to think about my words before they left my mouth. my dad said when i was young that i was an arrogant son of a gun and Charles E. Bukowski would be proud. sometimes i want you to want to kiss as much as i do, but i don’t expect you to return. i want you in my life.
