irl pre-dance jitters
1 a.m double chocolate chip pancakes in the park with friends
and a sick girl in the back of his white minivan all clutching to a blanket and funny and what-cha-ma-callit
and at somepoint we'll never sleep and the type-writter keys etched into our heads, what loudness!
and i cry and i laugh laugh and i sip coffee from a straw
and his face is what keeps my awake and it makes me laugh
and it all-in-all make me sigh
and your mother didn't mind like i thought she would
that r.e.m song was playing in my mind
and 3 1/2 minutes, felt like a lifetime.and i love life
