RORY

Don’t you worry
i’m sorry
i’m not supposed to worry
i’m sorry
i’m just like you
i’m supposed to be just like you–
Perfect.

pretty and prefect
forget how we’re worth it
i was once voted most beautiful too
fucked it up, they all voted for you
and i was lost
swimming in the day job
wondering if i’d ever day slob
and lose it–
to you.

Don’t you worry
i’m sorry
i’m not supposed to worry
i’m sorry
i’m just like you
i’m supposed to be just like you…
Perfect.

don’t you Rory
i’m perfect
found a day job
that’s PERFECT
wondering if you wanted me
to this day it’s bothering
wondering if you knew
i was perfect
like you.

Rory, i love you.
(you’re the only person i know named Rory)
(I named my dog Rory, but she was a dog)
