I’m thinking 'bout quitting Boston
I’m only stuck here one more year
Then I’m buying a midsize car
And moving out with my guitar from tar and folk
And from the choking city smoke
To the pines, I’ll leave behind all of my clothes
And all my ghosts
I’m thinking 'bout quitting the USA
And moving somewhere I feel safe
I’ll learn a language, change my name
Before they call me inhumane for being confused
I did not choose to be so used
But I hate perpetuating my abuse
So I’ll say adieu
I’m thinking 'bout quitting the planet earth
Cuz what’s a life in hiding worth
After all I’m sick, I know
I can’t escape it on my own, I really tried
I drank and fried till my brain died
But each dawn I’d wake and yawn the same and sigh
So this is goodbye
