City Of Motors |
| Three times dark, first in the mind |
| Second on Java Street, the dead car there |
| The hood blown out with a BB gun |
| Manuela said she saw the brakes fail… |
| Manuela said she saw the brakes fail… |
| An empty body, but it still bled |
| Oil from the axle, and it left a trail… |
| Ran down Java Street, and formed a pool |
| Manuela saw the moon in there… |
| Manuela saw the moon in there… |
| And I hear it rumbling, I hear transmission grind |
| I bear witness. |
| I have the clutch now |
| Three times darker on the rooftops |
| Man jumps between and grabs the rail |
| Man tries the door but the door is locked |
| Man gouge the hinge and goes down the stairs… |
| Man gouge the hinge and goes down the stairs… |
| Dull bright morning and the tools are gone |
| Detectives with flashlights in the elevator shaft |
| Manuela tells detectives she saw him there |
| Stuck in the hinge is a sliver of a fingernail… |
| Stuck in the hinge is a sliver of a fingernail… |
| And I hear it rumbling, I hear transmission grind |
| I bear witness. |
| I have the clutch now |
| Three times dark on the turnpike |
| From the Motor City to the City of Dis |
| They traced his travel by his credit card |
| No sleep, smokes, and he’s nauseous… |
| No sleep, smokes, and he’s nauseous… |
| Flips an ash like a wild, loose comma |
| Ash hits the oil around the pump |
| Travels to the pump and the pump explodes |
| Witness says he saw the car jump… |
| Witness says he saw the car jump… |
| And I hear it rumbling, I hear transmission grind |
| I bear witness. |
| I have the clutch now |
