i am a poet now, mommy.
and you're telling me I got it all wrong, that that was just a movie &these are all songs, but look at my face when I cry myself to sleep and the way the tears turn up, dancing cheek to cheek.
so i know when you sit there, with your hands like erasers, you're just making playlists ¬ inventing dangers, but you played it for me, and you woudlnt play it again, and I wake up with fingers like flies, cant look nobody between the eyes, "Sam, oh no, not for me," I mean you'd play it for anyone else twice but you're telling me it's all wrong, that that was just a movie &this is just a song
