lyrics

u could be the worst roman emperor of all time
i watched u shoot basketballs and said it was “fine”

i didn’t mean for this to be a mean poem but you bring out the worst in me

chandelier in the living room is used ... for when and where and what purpose? i don’t think i deserve this (i have not seen you turn it on one time) unlike you, i’m honest



losing a sense of urgency — not about anything urgent
any consideration i give to you is a gift — i don’t ask for it to be reciprocated (and it isn’t)

i remembered the feeling of a skee ball leaving my hand
i’d like to say i haven’t thought about it
and left you in the bookstore checkout line
but unlike you i’m honest

i didn’t mean for this to be a mean poem but you bring out the worst in me

for one, i begin what i say with an optimism and a truthfulness that u can’t comprehend, rendering me clueless when u eventually ...

i didn’t mean for this to be a mean poem but you bring out the worst in me

about

marbling New York, New York

driving in the tri-state at night when the traffic finally lightens up after the worst rush hour you can remember. on your left are 18 wheelers and on your right are pickup trucks and a dog is sticking its head out the window.
