(the tree in the badland)

coney island queen
the craziest you've ever seen
that's how my friends describe me
the friends i barely see
and they say i am that way
because of my upbringing mostly

i never knew what it's like to be loved by a mother
maybe when i was younger, but that must've been so long ago, i forgot
i kinda know what it's like to have a father
though, i never really see him
i got my father and my mother
but, somehow i still feel like an orphan
someone alone in this world
who doesn't belong nowhere

nobody's ever truly loved me
they only saw my face and the flesh that surrounds me
none of them ever paid attention to how i like my coffee
wich flowers are my favorite
the passion i have to help people in need
just the little things that make me, me
nobody ever saw that

sometimes i wonder if i am a good lover?

sometimes i wonder if i would be a good mother?
i don't think i'd be
or more specifically
i don't know how
people say i shouldn't think of it, now
'cause i'm only seventeen
but, whatever.
