i know i joke around about it but i'm being sincere too, i'm scared of the suburbs
scared of who i'd be if i lived here
scared of what banal turns my life would take
i would be happy, of course
most people are, out here in the suburbs
and it's not like my far-off corner of the city is that much different
but out here
in the suburbs
it feels different
i am haunted by a specter when i'm here
the ghost of a past life or something
i can't explain it
certainly not here
