Alcatraz

 

[[ maybe partly a quarantine story ]]

When I get out of here

Mr McCartney

I'll take a tour

of the horizon

I've memorized

in my dreams I am 

already knocking a hole through this wall 

somebody's picture of nothing at all

just a girl with ambition, a bottle of pills

and a number to call

I'll run my hands over 

every building of this awful town

turn it all upside down, 

shake it and see

-- that's what you fear most most of all

I'll run my hands over 

every woman in this awful town

turn them all upside down, 

shake em and see

-- that's what you fear most most of all

I can see Alcatraz

myth on a hard bay

from out the window

of this cable car

I'm mesmerized
