I Want, Therefore I Am

I want to be 7 again

So I can sing a Beatles song

With a chorus of Russian kids

I want my roommate to teach me

More English curse words

I want us forever to drink

From a fountain of fresh love,

I want the feeling of power from knowledge,

That power that makes people modest.

I want to understand

To be understood.

I want to be useful,

Don’t want to be used.

I want to be here forever,

I want to be somewhere else.

I still want something,

Therefore I am.
