I watched the film a thousand times
to figure out which role was mine
so I could relate better
and I took out all the liner notes
of the albums that I played the most
rearranged them to say something different
I cursed my idols
rejected my heroes
I made examples
of the people I cared about most
Now I read my story back to front
I lose myself in what I’ve done
I’m moving closer to the exposition
and I’m beginning to see that either way
this story’s read it ends the same
Drifting apart from my lack of grace
I’ll forget their faces
move off to a new town
repeat my choices
and leave the people I care about
