And wrap me in a blind tomorrow
I won’t fight no more
And I won’t scream
Maybe we’ll be washed away
Maybe I just need a holiday
This time we’ll get
A room with a view and a velvet painting
And this time we’ll stay inside
Until the lights go down
Over the palm trees and the sand
Buy me the blue sky
And wrap me in clouds of blasphemy
In the end I won’t ask why
You can do what you want with me
Maybe we’ll be thrown away
Maybe we just need a holiday
This time we’ll get
A room with a view and a velvet painting
And this time we’ll stay inside
Until the lights come up
And everything’s vermilion
Take me to the shore
And throw me into the water
I won’t fight no more
No, I won’t say a thing
This time we’ll get
A room with a view and a velvet painting
And this time we’ll stay inside
Until the lights come up
And everything’s vermilion
Every Name Is My Name
I made a movie about the end of the world
It was 12 seconds long and it didn’t have a plot
It just happens
And that’s why it’s in black and white
The characters don’t talk or move around
They just stare up at the sky, frozen
And the light, the light is numb, the light is off
The light is just a thumb nail sketch of God
God…
Somewhere, someone is crying
The camera sweeps over a desolate street
Holding a mother and her child
The kid is calm and she is shaking
The camera passes into the sun
Come at last to be undone
Panicking, she tries to run
The kid is calm
And then the credits roll
And every name is my name
