Mesa, AZ |
| We passed eight hundred miles, talking circles about living with loss |
| You said your sense of humor’s always helped you get above and across |
| Every hurdle, every chasm, every shocking and unspeakable blow |
| Just proves the universe is chaos, so you laugh to clear the lump from your |
| throat |
| But if you’re fixed on being bitter |
| Go be bitter on your own |
| We’re still two hours from El Paso |
| Arizona’s such a long way to go |
| The chemicals were coursing through our bloodstreams at incongruous rates |
| I was time-traveling inward through a past life I can never erase |
| You were hanging out the window |
| You said, «We're just a beggar’s banquet in space.» |
| And you were laughing at the moon |
| And you were cursing it for wearing your face |
| Me and New Mexico are orphans |
| Or is it bastards? |
| Either way: I think I know a guy in Roswell |
| We’ll hitch a moon ride |
| Steal you back your face |
| You sleep and whistle «Blackbird» backwards while my eyes cut her name in clay |
| You wake to Mesa, Arizona |
| Say, «Let it go, she’ll change her mind someday.» |
| You took the wheel in Mesa, Arizona |
| «I got the rest, man |
| You can drift away.» |
