I am in my room, staring at a moldy ceiling with my headphones on;
But I am not in my room; I am 12, lying on my back, on a playground far away
The grass is slightly wet from dew, it stains my jeans while an empty swing creaks a few feet away from me, nudged by a gentle wind
I am 12 yet I carry the same melancholia I have at 26, the world is too heavy to bear and too large to feel like home
