dialogue prompts from the record, an album by boygenius.
give me everything you've got.
i'll take what i can get.
i want to hear your story and be a part of it.
who would i be without you, without them?
i want you to hear my story.
it's a bad idea and i'm all about it.
when you wake up, i'll be gone again.

she's asleep in the backseat.
she called me a fuckin' liar.
i just make it up as i go along.
i'll get a real job, you'll go back to school.
you know how i get when i'm wrong.
i can feel myself becoming someone i'm not.
i'm twenty-seven and i don't know who i am.
you said you wanted to feel alive.
it feels good to be known so well.
i can't hide from you like i hide from myself.
you already hurt my feelings three times.
i remember who i am when i'm with you.
i'm trying to be cool about it.
i came prepared for absolution.
it's impossible to pass your test.
but i'm trying to forget about it.
once, i took your medication to know what it's like.
but we don't have to talk about it.
i'll pretend being with you doesn't feel like drowning.
it's nice to see how good you're doing.
i don't know why i am the way i am.
just lowering your expectations.
i just wanna know who broke your nose.
if this isn't love, then what the fuck is it?
but i'm afraid to get sick.
i used to think if i just closed my eyes, i'd disappear.
there's absolutely nothing going on.
if you love me, you will listen to this song.
i might like you less now that you know me so well.
i never thought you'd happen to me.
you could absolutely break my heart.
put down the knife, we're not swapping blood.
i feel crazy in ways i never say.
will you still love me if it turns out i'm insane?
i know what you'll say, but it helps to hear you say it anyway.
it doesn't have to be like that.
there's something about you that i will always recognize.
you don't have to make it bad, just 'cause you know how.
maybe i'm just exhausted.
you think you're a good person because you won't punch me in the stomach.
i love you, i don't know why.
you're not special, you're evil.
you don't get to tell me to calm down.
i'm better than you and you should know that by now.
i shoulda left you right there.
i can't feel it yet but i am waiting.
