I left 36 rooms behind me
I leapt into the minus 1
met a girl named Lakshmi and went inside
I heard the girls that sing and I cried
I sang myself goodbye and stumbled off into the night
4 photos of countless funny sights
the funny sides the photos in lines
aswell as the drugs
the photos in lines
aswell as the drugs
the footsteps made lines
to hanger 49
the photos in lines
aswell as the drugs
where the men play out of time
and the foot steps stay in lines
I slept a little then I leapt aloft
into a clamorous din but slowly rose again
then I crashed indistinct in intimate dozing
woken only by the buzzing sunshine interuption now
set snooze again and then a weekend word went
walking out to the end, to the air, its photos in the end
Out I hit the skin and off again and homeward bound
the photos in lines
aswell as the drugs
the footsteps made lines
to hanger 49
the photos in lines
aswell as the drugs
where the men play out of time
and the foot steps stay in lines

First of all I feel engaged
I feel the age reversing
back in time when my sisters helped
me to rehearse this
I have to say this city is ugly as sin
but the people inside are lovable anyhow
I might escape
and see the other side
in not at all
the proper
Imposing place
that I escaped
anticipation
then again a sin
I wonder what it looked like back then
The second time I read this place
I feel the pages turning
I sing the song that my brothers both
helped me to learn and so
now I find this town is a beautiful thing
and even despite the history hidden inside life is great
on the otherside
in not at all
the proper way
Imposing grace
that I embraced
anticipation
then again a sin
I wonder what it looked like back then
Right at this minute I feel so softly kissed
by a saint
why does this city feel so impoverished?
and I awake
all that has been and all of it fallen flat
all brick and mortar
all rotten facts

You know I wont ever detune a piano
build a museum outta all of my better parts
how the water taste
to my piano hey
its stuck in the waves
stuck in the waves
cos its like water
to the wheat
belief is the one thing and its never easy
too many systems tell me
how is that a waste
of energy and the days
draining away
If i know anything I know its very little
I'll make a castle out of all of my many faults
how the walls'll shake
under all of the weight
but never break but never break
But you are straws one and all
not breaking backs
or building effigies
we come together and the
sum of all of us is greater than the parts
anyway
sentimentality
