Med Poets Society Club: Anywhere but here

M. Nico

There must be something awful wrong with me –

I never got along with other kids,

I never felt alone between the trees,

I never felt the cold under the leaves.

Take me anywhere but here,

I can’t escape this same old rotten film.

Take me where the eyes are green

And girls have the softest skin;

Come away, take me anywhere but here.
