1 My heart’s aflutter! I am standing in the bath tub crying. Mother, mother who am I? If he will just come back once and kiss me on the face his coarse hair brush my temple, it’s throbbing! then I can put on my clothes I guess, and walk the streets. 2 I love you. I love you, but I’m turning to my verses and my heart is closing like a fist. Words! be sick as I am sick, swoon, roll back your eyes, a pool, and I’ll stare down at my wounded beauty which at best is only a talent for poetry. Cannot please, cannot charm or win what a poet! and the clear water is thick with bloody blows on its head. I embrace a cloud, but when I soared it rained. 3 That’s funny! there’s blood on my chest oh yes, I’ve been carrying bricks what a funny place to rupture! and now it is raining on the ailanthus as I step out onto the window ledge the tracks below me are smoky and glistening with a passion for running I leap into the leaves, green like the sea 4 Now I am quietly waiting for the catastrophe of my personality to seem beautiful again, and interesting, and modern. The country is grey and brown and white in trees, snows and skies of laughter always diminishing, less funny not just darker, not just grey. It may be the coldest day of the year, what does he think of that? I mean, what do I? And if I do, perhaps I am myself again.

I’m like a rocket going crazy I’m a leaf about to blow I’m an echo you never heard before And i don’t care where the good times go Here’s the place, shining face, when you said you need it Shaking hands, song and dance…not to sound conceited Time to accept the wave, but I jump in and oh how the water is freezing This is not the bottom, pull yourself back up again This is not the bottom, pull yourself back up again I got the memory of a baby And I don’t take any notes I’m the bottle you found on the shore So let’s pretend the good times roll What’s the plan? Where’s the map? How’d it get so scenic? Took some hacks, broke my back, here i stand defeated Stopping to see the waves Took a picture so oh now you’ll believe it This is not the bottom, pull yourself back up again This is not the bottom, pull yourself back up again This is not the bottom, pull yourself back up again This is not the bottom, pull yourself back up again

Don’t make that face Join the conversation I’m not a bad person Why can’t you see that? Let’s have a conversation Start a conversation I’d like to help but You had to be rude I’m almighty So you better be nice to me I’m almighty So you better be nice to me C’mon… (slobs) I’m such a sensitive person And I feel you But this really hurts me More than it hurts you Let’s have a conversation Start a conversation I really wanna help you But… I’m almighty So you better be nice to me I’m almighty So you better be nice to me (little pig) I’m almighty So you better be nice to me I’m almighty So you better be nice to me

Standing in the bathtub crying.
Quietly waiting to seem beautiful again.
Blowing like a leaf.
Never hitting rock bottom.
Begging our overlords for help.
Hearing we didn’t ask nicely enough.
Being better.
Being normal.
Being timeless.
Dancing ‘cause it feels good.
Dancing because it’s what we’re programmed to do.
