i wanna be famous for being famous
i wanna be the guy they follow through manhattan
with cameras and
i want them
to sell each breadcrumb
from the trail i left
to the highest bidder
while i smile and preach helping the poor

and i want you back
because like you
i only half-understand what it is like to be alone

my love, the hardest part is
letting go
of the burning stove
I knew it all along, see?

    If my interpretation of this part is correct, this is some of the most clever lines I've read in a while.
    Peace, Love.

    Personally, I like the line in your signature.

    But, thank you.
