before

this morning

i woke up on the floor

thinking i have never dreamed before

and in the afternoon

the nagging thought

that i have never lived or else forgot

i tell you stories

but truth be told

i can't remember

what came before

that's how i know

that's how i know

and i am brand new

and not so whole

that's how i know

on paper

i'm waving with a grin

proof of places i have never been

so i pull you forward towards this spot

that i have never seen or else forgot

i show you pictures

of this very corner

but i can't remember

who pushed the shutter

i have no answer

you say no matter"
