Firewall |
I do my best to sleep through the caterwaul |
The classicist, the posturin' avant-garde |
I bought a gray macaw, named him Jules Verne |
He’ll probably outlive me — he’s a bright bird |
Keeps me company, I teach him new words |
I saw a hologram at the theme park |
She looked as real as me through the white fog |
Then she melted down to her ankles |
Turned into a million-watt candle |
If I knew where she went, I would follow |
Walking through the land of tomorrow |
Martian trinkets, plastic Apollos |
In the sunshine, try to act normal |
My veins are full of flat cherry cola |
Slept on the bench by her rollercoaster |
Dreamt I was riding on a motorbike |
Lion of Judah, painted on the side |
I’m doing fine, I’m back in the Palisades |
Life’s a wash, a pastoral school play |
China shops and cold ivory towers |
I and I make toast to the Caesars |
Forcing down the dregs of Decembers |
Madeline, she spins in a slow bang |
All through the house, the strong smell of burnt sage |
Let’s make it clean and run out the spirits |
I know a diving bell when I hear it |
We’re going down now under the surface |
Light to dark can shift in an instant |
Feeling close but keeping my distance |
On all fours she’s just so insistent |
Fills my mind with jump ropes and slit wrists |
Bust through the firewall into Heaven |
And then I’m standing in that blinding light |
Crooked crosses falling from the sky |
Seen, yeah, seen by I and I (6x) |
Seen, yeah, seen, yeah, seen, yeah, seen, yeah |
Seen, yeah, seen by I and I and— |
