I must change.
I must change.
I must change.

Elodie said 'you think too much.'
Luke said 'you never take your chances.'
Full Moon said 'you disgust me.'

I must pretend
I haven't been through all of this before.

So:

It is early morning in Peel Park.
I'm running with the dog.
My twitching fingers are still new to the guitar.
They are not stained with nicotine.
I'm fifteen, hungry for Anneline,
And everything I love is living.
