I've prepared a list of words for the things I'll never be
One that includes funny, attractive, and interesting
I've also got a few choice words for the things you know are
Like lovely, lost, and lonely, and scarred (and let's not forget stubborn)
All of the things we'll never be
Could fill a dictionary
And the lives we'll never lead
They feel so literary
If you search you won't find me inside your glossary
Because I'm only a footnote lost inside a library
