lyrics

My mother leaves me here
past the sullen mannequins
in the black light I can take
my shoes off and rub my feet

on the glowing carpet in the aisles
of beeping cabinets
a city in a city in a city
right on the first, left on the second

December 30 it’s the year we start
watching our president in court
the year my father tells me not to be a pussy
they haven’t made any sandwiches again

i don’t want to go to school
i’m afraid of what they might do
surprise surprise we’ve got a gift for you
i don’t want to go home yet

lead me behind the screen
green greener than the sea

I always feel it leave my body as I enter
the bad air's left outside, the crashing
pedestrians, liquid colony, behind a pane
but I take the trail into fluorescent trees

inside the rods, inside the spaces
i’ll sing the shape first then last the flavor
crystal cola fruit just the kind that doesn’t
rot and i’ll laugh

walls have grown and doors have grown
familiar, safe in these maps I know
as I’m deeper I’ll greet Mr. White Rabbit
telling me: “right on the first, left on the second”

the arcade breaks with people screaming
must be the fire mages and their silly holidays
but of course, an exit, at the end it’s the game I used
to play, the one I used to like

the notched door frame
was a tread for my grip

letter has my same mistakes
but I don’t write like that
now it’s time to light a candle
and face a mirror bloody
mary bloody mary bloody mary
I’ll see something good

locked in a room
and the door frame holds me back
we both have fingerprints

find me
in time
both will
be mine

I will be told what to do
I’ll hear it if I twist the antenna
the promise will come to pass
me, by the Channelwood pump
a white pyramid

this is destiny
the yellows are seeking
indigo and light
rise again and again
clean your room

Cy Tamura
