about

Written after I watched 'Burn Your Maps'. I might or might not have cried during and after this movie.

lyrics

Creature in the back,
we’re the only ones still left.

The movie has ended
but the lights are still off,
happy endings feel like this,
with your own crap
in the dark.

With my failing love life
and unhappy kids,
I wish to go back.

The cleaning lady
wakes me up, “you’ve been here for weeks.”

Shots of zooming out,
all the lights are blinking.
Plot twists always feel like this,
with your old stuff on a new shelf.

With my thinning hair
and my bad eye sight,
I’m still stuck in myself.

Here’s to the walls
filled with photos of ex girlfriends.

And to the freezers
filled with bodies of passed husbands.
Waiting for the extra scenes I’m
sitting through credits
in my own life.

With my bitterness and digestive fluids
I’m still waiting for more.

Oh, opening scene,
starting off in the middle of the day.

Here’s what you get,
take this body and snowfall,
intros always feel like this,
you’re thrown in a life
and then it makes no sense.

With my fear of sleep
and chaotic nature.

And you see it at
every funeral.

And they told me in
creative writing class,
I’m so bad at endings.

Creature in the back,
ain’t it time that we both got out?

I know you feel it,
don’t wait for sequels, get out of here.

And soon in the city,
you’ll be greeting and handshaking,
you’ll know where to go from there, I’m sure!
