Erin Kizer
&
Future Teens
From ANDRAS JONES: ERIN KIZER is a roommate who had no idea she was going to be on a podcast when she came home from work on September 26th. Erin works for a company called Project Repat that makes quilts out of old t-shirts and she was bustling around above us just doing her thing when we realized we were one guest short for our episode with FUTURE TEENS. Someone was dispatched upstairs to ask Erin if she’d join us and she gamely agreed to do so. I hope she had as good a time as we had having her.

Learned Behavior
i’ve gotta get outta here
sometime or another
get off my ass make my way back to work
cat-sitting doesn’t call for undivided attention you know
i know
i’ve seen too many fall apart this way
i swore i wouldn’t add to the tally
if we’re true to the narrative i’m no different
i’m just another graduate starving for work however she can get it
i came home from a gig that made me hate music
i’m signing a lease that i can’t afford with my friends
ain’t this the dream
to be floating a family while they fight over money
i’d go broke to put an end to it to give them something else to do
get me out of the middle
haven’t caught myself a break since i opened my eyes
twenty-five years ago they called me beloved and they spelled it all wrong
it’s a beautiful sentiment
i’ve never felt less like it’s true for anyone that matters
so cut me slack i’m just trying to get back on my feet do the things i thought i’d have done by nineteen
i’m so hard on myself well i wonder if self-loathing’s learned behavior
if so can i unlearn it too?
i tell everyone i love they’re wonderful
they’re doing their best and i’ve never been prouder and i want to believe in me too
maybe i could believe in me too
