Skyscrapers reflect off your bald head,
sharper than your shit jokes.
The black gum on the street
reflects the stressors of Los Angeles,
getting blunter and steadily more beat.
The city of meeting on Angel's Flight,
trying to pay for your date.
The attendant knows it's only downhill from here.
He chuckles, "Sure, I can swipe your card twice."
Turn the corner and a stadium emerges.
A stadium on top of a building.
An empty stadium for two
and the white ash in the air.
Fall in love as much as you can
before the ash in the air
seems acutely unfair.
You drink in air.
I drink in streets.
You work at Apple with bunker benefits.
You enjoy coding instructions for living
on Earth as we destroy it.
How dare it!
We've only fucked it senseless.
Now I'm in the streets.
In line to leave the city.
I knew since the night the lights
couldn't fight the slightest winds
LA is a disaster zone turned project how can we win.
Mass exodus is coming
and I'm not down with the clique.
HeLp. Brain seed needs updating.
Waiting on you.
