lyrics

someone spilled
all the freckles out
emptying the jar
on her cheeks
arms and shoulders
a thousand scattered little stars
in the sun
finding patterns
curing constellations
I was in love
but she didn’t even know
who I was

in the stands
near the drum line
my heart a bleeding metronome
her smile a spark
laughing with her friends
she was my only home-
coming queen though all the votes
went to the token high school Barbie
in my mind no one else wore the crown

I knew every word
until she walked into the room
like a runaway train of thought
I would always lose
myself
in my mind wishing I was
really someone else
someone she would notice
