Alexis

Oh Alexis are you there yet?

Sent a signal out to you

You had planned a leap for humankind

But jumped a bit too soon

As you're swinging your umbrella

From a mezzanine on high

There will be no caveman gawkers

With the fear swelled in their eyes

I'm not worried for your bathrooms

I just hope you found some peace

With the white clouds as your catwalk

You can do just as you please

Oh Alexis are you listening?

You're the only girl I know

That can deadlift our delinquency

Through inhaled piles of snow

Now it seems they finally got you

And they’ll say the ending was fate

I would leave this all on your voicemail but

I’ve used both sides of the tape

Yeah I’ve used both sides of tape

Well they shuddered when they saw you

You're a being all brand new

Though we didn't mean to bring you harm

I guess I'm guilty too

In the shadow of your brother

Oh your sister looked so good

You lived somewhere in the middle

Where nobody ever could

Now it seems they finally got you

And they’ll say the ending was fate

I would leave this all on your voicemail but

I’ve used both sides of the tape

Oh Alexis are you listening?

I am not sure why I care

A couple rows back in my consciousness

I feel you always there

I hope they understand what happened

And the bleed for what they’ve done

You're the working class pariah

You’re the pageants only son

Put a statue up on Melrose

Or a plaque in Central Park

I hope they paint the town in glitter

Light a match and catch the spark

Pat and David humming with you

Sing dirges as you went

Yes Rosanna lost a sister

But I lost my only friend
