Southwest Elegy

Oh please be patient, I must explain my shaky state
This conversation could be taped and stored for spooky days ahead
Can I rewind this moment and leave no stone unturned?
Coz I’m a glitch in a perfect story
And you’re the one that never learned to fly

Liberty, girl, is my religion
Climbing skyscrapers like a ninja
A thousand feet – I can reach that high and find me a creature to defy
I’m a modern Da Vinci, son of Nietzsche
Give it a go, I’m gonna teach ya
Follow my lead and we’ll occupy
The Babylon Tower in the sky

Two horny spiders, entangled in our sticky lair
The borscht-colored sunset crowns the busy day of slow despair
You say I dodge the nature, unfit to play Tarzan
But you know nothing of my ventures
Just wait until I share my Zen

It’s time to burn some bridges and find our Xanadu
Now learn from the original gourmet of all the doom and gloom

And so you hate this city but you live in this city
And all the sins you inhibit make you wallow in pity
The killer smoke rising, drones recognize you
Old fears emerging, you could die a virgin
Become an insurgent in sunny paradise land
Boning angels, back with a vengeance
Back in the dark army of loser freaks
This is your final fix

Climbing skyscrapers like a ninja
Give me that old-time religion
Follow me girl, I really need ya, babe
Top of the world, we can reach that high
Desperate eagles in the sky
I wanna take you to my village now
Safe place, Olympic
I wanna take you to my people now
Cool place, Olympic
