this apartment
was rented for a reason
but not the one
others might suspect
I'm not sure
I am missed or if he even notices
I'm not home
but it doesn't really matter
I came here to be a stranger
in order to have tried everything
and after all I am used to
be treated like one

I grew old at nineteen
but it didn't seem to bother him
he said he liked what he saw
if he looked at me at all
so I packed what I had
determined to become
someone rather than anyone

and after all I am used to
be treated as one
