[strepthroat]

you know, i'm a pro
at being alone,
at being a loner.
not having a home, or
something close.

you know, i'm a pro
at being a dream.
at being a dreamer
and having no where to sleep.

you know, all i can think,
all i can see ,
and all that i want,
is to know that someday
when i'm drunk off my ass
and you're falling asleep;
is that if an ignorant man
ever planted a seed in me
all that will sprout
is a tree.

no one deserves to grow up like me
so all that i want is a tree

you know that i'm close
you're thinking too much
no overdoses, no losing your touch
because all that you want
and all that you need
is children to grow up like me
children to grow up with me

i put on my clothes
and i take them off
but all that i want is
a cure for this cough
that starts in my lungs
and it rakes up my throat
but i've done no wrong
i'm just being alone
i'm just being a loner
just being unknown or
something close.
