about

A fatalistic desert ballad written on the northern plains of Queens, NY.

lyrics

I keep hold of my possessions.
Count the blessings if you can.
Birds and airplanes over boulevards
Help me Myra if you can

Milk and Ovaltine ambitions
Might just hyphenate my name
Social currency won't abide by spring
Nor the airplanes over boulevards
Help me Myra if you can

Cuz I'm bored out my mind and my heart's gone moot.
And I don't think that you look like him

I keep hold of my possessions, reservations, and malaise.
Facing no one as I always do
Turned around and learned my name
Help me Myra if you can

Cuz I’m bored out my mind and my heart’s gone moot
And I don’t think that you look like him

I’ll believe that Jesus believes in me
to yourself and your own repatriation.
He’s a martyr far too warm to lose
