I had a life, but I left it behind me
as I made a 180 so that it wouldn’t find me,
and I buried everything that could still remind me
of what I’d used to be,
and which some still think is me.
I bought a new car and new closet of clothes
that look how I’m supposed in the new life I chose,
and I’ll have some of this; I’ll take some of those.
Maybe I’ll pass some to you –
it’s polite not to take more than two.
I live in that house that you see on that hill;
when I can, I’ll move up to a higher one still,
even so, I can’t sleep, ’cause I’m paying a bill
that never redeems
that I never remember my dreams.
