about

Written after I watched 'Born To Be Blue' two hours before dinner time.

lyrics

Articles
on famous last
regrets.

I’ve been
reading all of them
In bed.

Buzzfeed tells
me how to live my
life.

But I’m gonna lose my friends
and I’ll lose my
wife.

Parents will say
that I’m bad news
I’ll be sleeping on
old ‘New York
Tribunes'

Misreading the headlines as I snooze.

Music themed
birthday cards
in my mail.

Postcards showing
the tropical climate of
hell.

A guitar string round my neck
is what I should feel,
a marionette.

Buzzfeed says there’s always a way back

But I’ll run from Christmas dinners every year.
La la la la, la la la la!
Walking with my iPod to the pier.
La la la la, la la la la!

With my trumpet
on a pointy rock.

I can touch the sky from here,
can I not?

No, you’re lying on the floor and you’re leaking spit
and you’re done for.

Your best friends now live inside the drawer.

But I’ll fall from windows mysteriously every year.
La la la la, la la la la!
And one day it will make me disappear.
La la la la, la la la la!

I’ll be lying on the ground, getting stabbed to death, but there’s no crying sound.
My iPod will play like there’s nothing going on.

And then I’ll know I chose so poorly,
music doesn't care much for me,
and I’ll see you standing there,
in the kitchen, making dinner
with your husband and your children
and I will say my famous last regrets.
