Letras

Mmm, mmm
As long as I can remember, I have always lived in this elevator
Traveling floor to floor to floor to floor to floor to floor
Witnessing birth, death, fistfights, suicide
Heartbreak, revelation, the recitation of offertories
The Godhead skipping off to the rooftop bar
Oh, da da da da da da da
Da da dum da da dum
Philosophers fingering fistfuls of morphine
To snuff out their lives on the Franco-Spanish border
California novelists hauling typewriters
Half their size to the thirteenth floor
To record the progression of a breakdown
That began on the balcony of a room that looked
Over the blue of the the Baltic Sea
And from the waves they could dictate all varieties of wonder and grief and ecstasy
Oh, da da da da da da da
Da da dum da da dum
Oh, da da da da da da da
Da da dum da da dum
The construction of rumors about an airplane
That had ripped through the ribcage of Lower Manhattan
Black magic in the way those rumors hardened into fact
As details slowly were filled in
Bloodshed, bloodletting, bloodroot, blood sport
Neighbors maiming neighbors in an endless war
I believe that God is love, and love is peace
Someone bring me a bright green branch of an olive tree
Oh, da da da da da da da
Da da dum da da dum
Oh, da da da da da da da
Da da dum da da dum
Bodies clawing their way into the car
To cool themselves to try to survive
Attorneys in expensive suits headed to expansive suites
To prepare for the trial of the century:
Greed versus life
I am speaking of the 23rd century, the 27th century
The end of days, for which I vaguely prepare
When this elevator will be consumed
Gilded mirrors and iron twisted in flame
All that is solid will melt into air
Oh, da da da da da da da
Da da dum da da dum
All that is solid will melt into air
Oh, da da da da da da da
Da da dum da da dum
