On Regret

When I was young, I ran everywhere I could Faster than the setting sun, I was fastest in the neighborhood When I was young, I jumped over everything Puddles, hurdles, the sun; from couches, houses, and trees I ran without breath and jumped with bones broken When I was young, I regret all that I did I ran like the wrong and jumped unforgiven I have no gratitude for the summer, it's in regret I find comfort In regret is my freedom-song, 'cause in truth it is not "Can't you run any faster? Can't you jump any higher So I ran until I puked and when I jumped I flew "Why can't you run any faster? Why can't you jump any higher So I ran until I fucking puked, and when I jumped I fucking flew It was never fast enough for you and never high enough for you So for comfort I sang a song and fain I lost my heart When I was young
