cannonball statman - orbiting the pacific كلمات الأغنية

she brings an island with her
paints fire in the ocean air
the doctor says he’s never seen her
he hears her in the cackles of rain gods
he wonders where she is today
she fills his lungs in the morning
dancing off a street lamp
her waves climbing over the stairways

she is a wounded dog on the prowl
an angel cut down from her cloud
she goes by many numbers and names
she pulls herself out of the ground
the doctor says he knew her once
and she might not remember
he floats, often bodyless
over the structures of this tourist town

she brings her island with her
her ancient ashes and pains
the western hemisphere waits in fear
of sirens and harmonicas
the doctor wakes up with a stranger
a subversive new warlock digging nails
into sunken diatonic ears
brushing teeth over a player piano

i also fell into a man once
in a hundred tunnels in tennessee
i gifted him a bottle of coca-cola apple
from new york city, with nitrogen
this man became a platform
for a coney island bound f train
who watched the second tower struck
and watched the tears of the comatose

and every year, i took my daughter
west, through the small zapotec villages
and mountain mushroom towns
through forests and temazcal ceremonies
onto the burning sand orbiting the pacific
to stare out at the nighttime water
save the abandoned alcoholic on the sh-r-
and wonder why we came

she brings an island with her
she goes by many numbers and names
the doctor says she’s on a bus
to the great mortician’s grave
my daughter paints the walls with her
cotton candy lollipop dreams
they go around from town to town
the doctor floats upstream

- cannonball statman
