Your mother hung herself in the National Theater
When she was four months pregnant with your sister
Who would have been thirteen years old today

Does that make you feel any less alone in the world?

Your dad I'm sure he tried his best

He thought you'd be better off living with your grandmother
He didn't realize that she had already given up
Baby your family they are just losers


I've become such a wolf around you
My thoughts go dark and dull out of focus

Have no peace in my mind
Because you
You've touched me


The screech owls are going insane outside my house
It is the season for trouble and self destruction

All of my friends they are falling apart
But not me I'm in control


Remember the exquisite corpse that we created together
We laughed at the time it seemed so impenetrable
But reading it now I think I understand

What it is that we are trying to steal from each other

I've become such a wolf around you

My thoughts go dark and dull out of focus
Have no peace in my mind
Because you

You've touched me
