lyrics

If I walk steady down that road
And keep my face turned down
If I pull my silence round my neck
and keep my eyes on the ground

Then maybe I can pass right through the words that stick like burrs onto me
Maybe I can be as light as air

If my clothes were bigger, like a mountain
Maybe I could transform
Like a caterpillar wrapping up
To be reborn

Dirty pillows, bedroom eyes, I'm tired of my life inside
This body, wish that I could hide away
Sibyl jarred like a firefly, just her voice that's left behind,
saying, please let me die

Mission Street, coming up the steps from BART, I see them wait for me
Clustered like a pack of wolves along Sixteenth
It's worse though if I change my path, so I just keep
Going like a train along a track
Don't look back
Walk steady

I take the 38 down Geary
And get a window seat
Alone for a little while on my way
To Ocean Beach

Riding off into the Sunset without a thought, like the lucky ones that
live invisible and light as air
I just want to pass right through the filthy words that stick onto me
Maybe I can be as light as air
