Freebird

I had love and affection...I think...
but I didn't understand it.  It wasn't what
I knew. I am sorry I hurt him but I
just couldn't relate. I didn't fit in.

There isn't a sappy sweet side to me.  If there was,
I'd rip it out and flush it down the toilet.  If it
were forever plugged - I'd shit in the sink.  
The sink I bathe in. It's my reality.

Fuck anyone who wants to fix me.
I tried and failed fixing a man.  You
can't fix anyone else if YOU are broken.
Don't ask how I cope - go suck a dick!

Guys are easy to get and easy to use.
My mother went through dozens.
Most of them used me.  Some of them
ran away quickly and never got to me!

Now I'm the user.  It's what I want - cause
It's what I know.  I'm not even going to
pretend.  It is what it is.  That's all it can
be because it's all that I know.

So, the rest of my life I'm a freebird -
Fly anywhere and shit on anyone!

End of trilogy.  1. It's All I Knew. 2. So I Move On. 3. Freebird.
