I'm late.

Need to get my hair and nails done
Pullin' 10 dollars an hour
We all know what I oughta be doin'
I kick up dirt, set paranoid fears aside
Own worst enemy, worry worry
I create visions and words in my head
A man on the train looks me
Up and down
Up and down
Up and down
Down and up

And I hopped on and thought
What will we do when
Our eyes are forced to meet again
But the cities so big
So large
Maybe never.

You were right
At last
I got a new boyfriend
And you never saw me again.

And for that I can let out a big sigh
At last.

I usher it all into place
With love
With power
With sincerity
And the most fruitful kindness.
