I left West LA when I was eighteen
for the colder coast
and I forgot to say bye to my brother
I started crying so I sent him a text
he wrote back pretty quick:
I’ll see you another couple of months
yeah, it kind of sucks
he is the funniest guy I know.
and it’s the first time I’ll have a room of my own
I wasn't happy when I left all my hapa friends behind
so I did my very best to write them sad songs goodbye
I walked this girl home from class
she said, "you didn't really have to do that"
I made a best friend who made me realize
I’m shorter than I think
he said I use the word cool too much
much more than I think
he said here is the story of the girl I liked in high school
I said here is my lack of drama
he said here are my secrets the worst things that I’ve done in my life
I said I’ve never been in a fight before; I gotta
I got a lot of anger inside
a narrator in my head that lies
I got an oobleck heart
and sometimes when my girlfriend kisses me
she has to stop and ask if I'm all right?
I shake my head and start to cry
when is this movie over? and how did it get so late?
what’s the point of all this?
well I wouldn’t really know what to say
what made you think that you’d find happiness here?
I say I’ve had enough of this, you say that’s bullshit.
