hey dude. i don’t mean to call you so late, but did you know that no longer a danger to herself or others, she made up her mind and laced up her shoes, yelled down the hall but nobody answered, so she walked outside without an excuse. she can do anything she wants to, she can do whatever she wants to do. she can go home, but she’s not going to. so she picks a direction, it’s 90 in memphis. turns up the music so thoughts don’t intrude, predictably winds up thinking of elvis, and wonders if he believed songs could come true. i’m asking for it if they do. doesn’t know what she wants, or what she’s going to do—a rebel without a clue. so we spent what was left of our serotonin to chew on our cheeks and stare at the moon. said she knows she lived through it to get to this moment, ate a sleeve of saltines on my floor and i knew that i would do anything you want me to. i would do anything for you. i would do anything, i would do anything, whatever you want me to do i will do. whatever she wants. whatever she wants. whatever she wants. whatever she wants. i will do anything, i will do anything, whatever she wants. whatever she wants.
every day i wake up and then i remember that phoebe bridgers wrote graceland too about julien baker and then i remember that video of julien at one of the concerts standing up and just looking around and holding the microphone to her chest while phoebe sang graceland too and then i go to sleep and then i wake up and i remember
