-you 're right / who you are / it feels unfair sometimes that there are so many lives which i will never know / never know what it feels like to be a man to be a lesbian to live in another place another time to be something else seems unfair somehow that we have only the one life / i remember thinking about that when i was a young girl / eighteen i guess i probably did n't think i was especially young probably felt pretty old at the time / i remember thinking something like that and deciding that i was going to be an actress or a writer / i was going to live other lives .
