I… I’m gonna write like you, Use pen and paper Like I never could my voice All the morbid, The cowering thoughts and opinions I will hand them to you Because I never could lend you my voice I’ll occupy my words— Character and author like I’ve always tried to be Like you taught me I believe I’ll let my words introduce me To all the people I’ve known for years I like to think that you had very little shame. I like to think I’m going to bear the soul, that’s never seen daylight, Just like you tell me I should.
