letra de hepburn - sister city

entry level empathy with nursing home intensity
sound asleep but able bodied; tawdry effort, awful hobbies

i am every bit as bristling with bitterness as i was
i just try to take it down a notch

to not treat details as entrails, rancid as the landfills
on a mid-atlantic afternoon my fears are finally coming true
that i’m somewhere between solipsist and utterly anonymous
and the ground is just as bottomless as the sprawling sky is infinite

i will smile and nod pretending i don’t speak the language
i could, but my accent isn’t very good

there’s a lithe young thing and it’s calling to me
and i wipe the sweat from my palms on my jeans
as i approach, it bares its t–th
says “i am the things you’ll never be”

there’s a lithe young thing and it’s calling to me
and i lock the door and get under the sheets
as i lean in close, it sinks its t–th
says “i am the things you’ll never be”

“what you are, i know
where you’ve been, i followed”

meaningless decisions with circuit board precision
a prim and proper piston in an old, unoiled engine
i could be on the precipice or way down looking up at it
it seems more like coincidence the longer i look
and think i feel my fingertips brush up against some evidence
of any indication i am close
to what i feel i’m owed
when i hear my conscious groan

“what you are, i know
where you’ve been, i followed”
