Being Boring - Merril Bainbridge

I came across some casual photos

An invitations to teenage parties

Dress in white one said with quotations

From someone's wife, a famous writer

In my 1920's

When you're young you find inspiration

And anyone who's ever gone

And opened up a closing door

He said, we were never feeling bored

'Cause we were never being boring

We had too much time to find for ourselves

And we were never being boring

We dressed up and fought till thoughts made amends

And we were never holding back

Or worried that time would come to an end

When I left I went to the station

With a haversack and some trepidation

Someone said if you're not careful

You'll have nothing left and nothing to care for

In my nineteen seventies

But I sat back and looking forward

My shoes were high I had spores

I bolted through a closing door

I would never find myself feeling bored

'Cause we were never being boring

We had too much time to find for ourselves

And we were never being boring

We dressed up and fought till thoughts made amends

And we were never holding back

Or worried that time would come to an end

We were always hoping that looking back

You could always rely on a friend

Now I sit in different faces

In rented rooms and foreign places

All the people I was kissing

Some are here and some are missing

In my nineteen nineties

I never dreamt that I would get to be

The creature that I always meant to be

But I thought in spite of dreams

You'd be sitting somewhere here with me

'Cause we were never being boring

We were never being bored

We were never being boring

We were never being bored

We were never holding back

Or worried that time would come to an end

We were always hoping that looking back

You could always rely on a friend
