Reblogging this because this is the ONLY thing that gif will ever be used for.
Fiona Apple ‘Paper Bag’I was staring at the sky, just looking for a star
To pray on, or wish on, or something like that
I was having a sweet fix of a daydream of a boy
Whose reality I knew, was a hopeless to be had
But then the dove of hope began its downward slope
And I believed for a moment that my chances
Were approaching to be grabbed
But as it came down near, so did a weary tear
I thought it was a bird, but it was just a paper bagHunger hurts, and I want him so bad, oh it kills
‘Cause I know I’m a mess he don’t wanna clean up
I got to fold ‘cause these hands are too shaky to hold
Hunger hurts, but starving works, when it costs too much to loveAnd I went crazy again today, looking for a strand to climb
Looking for a little hope
Baby said he couldn’t stay, wouldn’t put his lips to mine,
And a fail to kiss is a fail to cope
I said, ‘Honey, I don’t feel so good, don’t feel justified
Come on put a little love here in my void,’ he said
‘It’s all in your head,’ and I said, ‘So’s everything’
But he didn’t get it I thought he was a man
But he was just a little boyHunger hurts, and I want him so bad, oh it kills
‘Cause I know I’m a mess he don’t wanna clean up
I got to fold ‘cause these hands are too shaky to hold
Hunger hurts, but starving works, when it costs too much to loveHunger hurts, but I want him so bad, oh it kills
‘Cause I know I’m a mess he don’t wanna clean up
I got to fold ‘cause these hands are too shaky to hold
Hunger hurts, but starving works, when it costs too much to loveHunger hurts, but I want him so bad, oh it kills
Because I know that I’m a mess that he don’t wanna clean up
I got to fold because these hands are just too shaky to hold
Hunger hurts, but starving, it works, when it costs too much to love
“I think you’re ready now to hear a little story about a girl named Megan. A girl named Megan that didn’t have a very good time in high school. I’m referring to myself when I say Megan. Me Megan. And I know you look at me now and think ‘Boy, she must of breezed through high school.’ Not the case Annie, No…this was not easy going up and down the halls ok? They use to try and blow me up, they threw fire crackers at my head. Fire crackers. I mean literally I’m not saying that figuratively. Fire crackers thrown at my head. They called me a freak. Do you think I let that break me? Think I went home to my mummy crying ‘Oh I don’t have any friends, Oh Megan doesn’t have any friends.’ No I did not, you know what I did…I pulled myself up, I studied really hard, I read every book in the library and now I work for the Government. I have the highest possible security clearance. DON’T REPEAT THAT! I can’t protect you, I know were all the nucs are and I know the codes. You would be amazed, a lot of shopping malls. DON’T REPEAT THAT! I have six houses, I bought an 18 wheeler a couple of months ago just because I could okay, you lost Lillian. You got another best friend sitting right in front of you if you’d noticed ha? So you gotta stop feeling sorry for yourself ok? because I do not associate with people that blame the world for their problems because you’re your problem Annie and you’re also your solution. ”
I’m so happy someone transcribed this. <3

This speech is inspirational- I need it transcribed.
So even without a ‘Megan’ in my life- I will still have someone to bite me in the ass.
