Let me pick through the empty dirt
And the rotten wood and the shoddy work
Cause I'm interested, and our carpenter is so elegant at placing splinters
Right beneath my nails, where I cannot dig them out
But the same briars from your ribs are the tinder in my father's house
And I know, I know, I know, I know
I know myself better than anybody else
And you're gonna run
You're gonna run when you find out who I am
I know I'm a pile of filthy wreckage you will wish you'd never touched
But you're gonna run when you find out who I am
Yeah, you're gonna run
You're gonna run, it's alright, everybody does (x4)

It's been a hard day
I'm wine stained and long limbed, and long haired I--'m Not quite the porcelain doll you had in mind, my love. I'm hard headed, pointy breasted, and depressed love. not the quite the spitting image had of a white dove. but I'm trying, to make it though the day. it's hard to say... I didn't mean to make it my way... I'm just trying to be the person that you see in me but I've got to admit it's been a hard day.

I want to say and I want to mean, that I'm too busy to care. That I have too many obligations to think about what the big story meant to me personally and what I do with all of this feeling after. But the truth is, eating at the edges, I'm never too busy to care. I hope she doesn't hate me. I tried to do the right thing. People suck, actually. As much as I didn't want this to turn into another comment section, it did. As much as I hoped people would take my carefully selected omissions as a sign, they didn't. I guess this is what doing this kind of thing is like. I guess I get used to it. I guess I at least pretend to be too busy to care.
To get here was harrowing
I was late and the wind and water drowned my car. I clasped my steering wheel anxiety-ridden down the 80 for 45 miles at a speed somewhere in between. I was in town getting my teeth fixed. Through the window, I watched the old sights stained by rain. The dentist took longer than expected and I wondered if I would have the energy to stop by the independent bookstore. Thankfully, I did. A train came as I pointed my car towards home and so I parked and got a coffee. I got gas. And then... As I returned emails and texts from my car about a story that featured an odious resident of this two-horse town, I debated internally whether to stop by the courthouse. For better or worse, I did. The courthouse was almost comically large, festooned with the word "COURTHOUSE" as if it had been dreamed up by an algorithm attempting to approximate one.

But babe-- look at those bodies? Sweetheart, how many do you have down there?
