[[ A list/sequence/geography song - based on an old police photo (1955) of a man's body lying under an LA bridge, plus the route of the LA River down to the Pacific. The blood flows under the bridges and people gather under the bridges. The last part is the healing, coming together from the atoms up. ]]
between concrete walls
what's left of a river
shines in the sun
on a concrete bed
shines in the sun
on a concrete bed
between concrete walls
what's left of a manstares into the sun
if ever a man
ever had any blood
it has all run away
down the LA River
under the bridges of Chinatown
under the bridges of Boyle Heights
under the bridges of Vernon
under the bridges of Bell Gardens
under the bridges of South Gate
under the bridges of Compton
under the bridges of Long Beach
under the bridges and into the bay
cool water comes down from the mountains
cool water comes down from the clouds
filling the river - hydrogen oxygen hydrogen
clinging together - hydrogen oxygen hydrogen
