you are everything you are everyone you are every cliche you are the sun, you are the stifling heat that cannot be escaped you are valentines cards misdirected and misshaped, you are hotmail, you are myspace, you are my face, hungover and exhausted, you are lost kids, you are something that was fun, you are not getting shotgun, you are beer that's been in the sun too long, you are a sad song, that's not been made better, you are the hole in my sweater, or my pockets, you are the chalky sugar that's passed off as rockets, you are the first drummer of the beatles, you are evil, and i don't mean that jokingly, you are choking me, like turtlenecks, or high stake bets, made on the wrong team, you are what seems like a good idea at the time, you are past tense, you are jeans caught in the fence preventing teens from sneaking in, you are cold wind on a dry winter's day, you are Coldplay's last two albums, you are too much talcum powder you are convenience store flowers, you are forced, you are hoarse voices in place of song, you are wrong, you are the weakest link, you are outdated references, you are beverages, that have lost carbonation, you are hesitation that leads to regret, you are the new york mets, you are first impressions that i make on the elderly, you are Beverly Hills Chihuahua, you are foie gras, you are aqua and their music in my head, you are cold beds, warm beer, empty freezers, old tears, fake appeasers, new fears, you are the moments when it feels like no one's near, you are searching for Waldo for hours, you are any buildings "bigger" than the cn tower, you are fake, you are first date awkward silence, you are last date awkward silence, you are violence, you are hybrid suvs, you are bees, you are black flies, you are forgetting an event is black tie, you are something nice to forget, you are socks that are wet, you are the slow driver in the left lane, you are fame, you are fleeting seconds never to be recaptured, you are the man on the corner screaming about rapture, you are actors selling out, you are stains on a couch, you are lost remotes, you are failed attempts to save face, you are everything that has ever graced this time and space, here and above, you are everything, you are love...
