I just want to run until the end
Is finally in sight. (Don't ask me what
It is like. I don't know, and I would hate to write
My ignorance with knuckles on your face.)
I know that everyone says shit like this.
What's that to you? I'm not everyone,
Even if I was last week. A man's allowed
To change his life. Don't push me; screw your proof...
Oh, Jesus. Can't you see that all I want
Is not to know how much I cannot know?
