I'm back. I'm not staying.

lyrics

Five months back is all they’re going to get! Here for barely a week and cannot wait to leave. Escaped once I know that I hold the key! Store things and me for free while I plot strategy.

Mom’s out of hospital, but doom hangs in the air. Her and Dad locked in same fight and settle TV stare. Burn rice just one time, you’d think I killed The Pope. I’m slamming doors again, soon bracing for the cold.

Five months back is all I’m going to take! May I please take back all ill I spoke of Tampa? Try to hang with remains, but some of them are whack! Turned to right with Johnny; should have stuck with Joey.

May lose my own mind if I stay past my deadline. Phone support for now, student loan payback time. My sole consolation is nearest shining lights: Trains to an island where noise feels like a quiet.

Five days left and it’s feeling like an end! Not leaving for college but trying for a life. Records packed and they’re never coming back! It’s January mild, still too chilly for party.

New York was in running; stay near the family? Yet can’t resist the pull of the songs sun and trees. When bye time Mom asks, "Have you seen your Dad cry?" First time. Maybe own migration comes to mind. Will we finally feel close, helped by distance and time?
