First let me wake
I think I woke on the wrong side
My body has been cramped into a position
The sky’s bright
The opposite of what I’m feeling
But I was sure I felt good yesterday

I should quit my boyfriend too
There’s nothing I want to write in this fifth and six line here
But I got to So it’d be symmetrical with the above Only then I’ll relax and feel complete
But oh well
