I.
|
1 |
I switch four seats down the row, for serious,
|
2 |
I hate her hair.
|
3 |
That new boyfriend, he's incredibly ugly,
|
4 |
"I think she's incredibly ugly." hey babe, high five.
|
5 |
|
|
II.
|
6 |
Later we'll talk about how I was his first love.
|
7 |
I'm grimy. Like raw.
|
8 |
How he calls me a fucking whore because he's insecure
|
9 |
And not because I dated other men behind his back.
|
10 |
|
|
I know I screwed him up, I know his prideful fear is my wrongdoing.
|
11 |
I feel no remorse.
|
12 |
|
|
III.
|
13 |
I know this girl who sucks coke up her nose and boys down her throat,
|
14 |
corroded.
|
15 |
I consider her manipulative, and don't think that she knows.
|
16 |
|
|
How she'll show up at the houses of people I know,
|
17 |
How I'll take her to parties,
|
18 |
And then get blamed,
|
19 |
"Why did you tell her where we live? We don't want her here."
|
20 |
|
|
I talk trash about her behind her back, no lie,
|
21 |
She's my undoing.
|
22 |
I feel no remorse.
|
23 |
|
|
IV.
|
24 |
Dollface, I made a list of every word that begins with 'God'
|
25 |
And found you nowhere.
|
26 |
|
|
You had sex with that girl just to lose it before eighteen,
|
27 |
You do X because dance culture's the only culture you'll ever understand,
|
28 |
So suck it up.
|
29 |
|
|
I used to dress slutty and lounge about your bed like some cat in heat,
|
30 |
To make you want me.
|
31 |
|
|
Most days I forget that you exist.
|
32 |
|
|
V.
|
33 |
Here's me one-hundred-and-seven-pounds
|
34 |
And throwing up Gatorade and coffee flavored yogurt at four a.m.
|
35 |
The whole time, all I can think is,
|
36 |
I don't even throw up this dirty when I'm drunk
|
37 |
And
|
38 |
Why are you dating that nasty girl with the emo haircut?
|
39 |
|
|
She lives across an ocean and I live across Alligator Alley,
|
40 |
I've loved you four years running,
|
41 |
But what are you to her?
|
42 |
|
|
Later I'll get a call from my old lover who moved away,
|
43 |
And we'll talk about how he needs to move back to Florida,
|
44 |
Buy a car,
|
45 |
Build an army.
|
46 |
|
|
I love him, but I'm going to treat you like shit anyway.
|
47 |
|
|
VI.
|
48 |
Me and her discuss how badly we want out.
|
49 |
We're tired of the sunshine, we're tired of the heat.
|
50 |
We're tired of the Spanish and the people.
|
51 |
|
|
We're tired of running into all those old acquaintances,
|
52 |
Who remember us fatter and dressed in Hot Topic clothing,
|
53 |
Who hate us for never doing Xanax or Triple C's.
|
54 |
|
|
We know that once we get out, then we can start over.
|
55 |
We won't talk all this shit, or drink this cheap beer.
|
56 |
Once we get to
|
57 |
Boston
|
58 |
Chicago
|
59 |
Kansas City
|
60 |
New York
|
61 |
Everyone will have it figured out.
|
62 |
|
|
We'll forget Miami.
|
63 |
We'll grow up.
|
64 |
|
|
VII.
|
65 |
I want you to know that I've loved you.
|
66 |
I've defined myself with your sawgrass and your highways.
|
67 |
I've slept with a lot of your men.
|
68 |
|
|
I feel no remorse.
|
69 |
