lyrics

There’s a city in my head 
partly living partly dead
fades in and out of view 
when I need it to
I came here more 
than twenty years ago
when I needed to go 
somewhere else 
where I could belong to 
others of my kind 
others who were not blind 
others who would see me for me

There’s a city in my head 
sometimes black and white
Sometimes red
other times it toggles 
between the two
shifts in and out of view
I hear it when I want
it knows how to haunt
it knows how to hide
somewhere deep inside
Comes out of me 
at the strangest of times
chilliest of climes

There’s a city of the dead 
partly inside my head
partly inside yours 
buildings windows doors
rows and streets and signs 
shady trees soft hills steady inclines
No one ever gets hit 
by a car or a truck or a bus
It’s a place where we’re safe
I mean, all of us
