GIn my mind
In a future five Cyears from now
I'm 1D20 pounds
c
And I never get hungover
Because IG will be the picture of Cdiscipline
Never minding what Dstate I'm in
And be Csomeone I admire
And it's Dfunny how I imagined that I would Cbe that person now
But it Ddoes not seem to have happened
Maybe I've Cjust forgotten how, toD see
That I'm not Cexactly the person that I thought I'd Gbe
And in myG mind
In the faraway Chere and now
I've become in contrDol somehow
And I Cnever lose my wallet
Because GI will be the picture of Cdiscipline
Never fucking up Danything
And I'll be a Cgood defensive driver
And it's Dfunny how I imagined that I would Cbe that person now
But it Ddoes not seem to have happened
Maybe I've Cjust forgotten how, toD see
That I'll Cnever be the person that I thought I'd bGe
And in myG mind
When I'm Cold, I am beautiful
Planting tulips and Dvegetables
Which I will Cmindfully watch over --
Not like me, Gnow
I'm so busy with Ceverything
That I don't look at Danything
But I'm sure I'llC look when I am older
And it's Dfunny how I imagine that I could Cbe that person now
But that's not what I Dwant, if that's what I wanted then I'd be Cgiving up somehow
How strange to Dsee ---- that I don't want to Cbe the person that I want to bGe
And in Gmy mind
I imagine soC many things
Things that aren't really Dhappening
And when they Cput me in the ground,
I'll start pounding the Glid, Saying "I havCen't finished yet –
I still have a taDttoo to get
That says 'I'm Cliving in the moment'."
And it's Dfunny how I imagined that I could Cwin this winless fight
But maybe it Disn't all that funny that I've been Cfighting all my life
But maybe I Dhave to think it's funny if I Cwanna live before I die
And maybe it'sD funniest of all to think I'll Cdie before I actually see
