St. Marks (Behind The Rectory)

lyrics

Hey baby.
I don’t mean to be freaking you out, but who’s that man outside, looking in at us looking back out?
Was MKULTRA right?

The Episcopalian priest has filled my head with ghosts of Houdini and Warhol and Poe and I can’t see a way out now.

Hey baby.
Have you noticed the ceiling again?
It’s caving in and I’ve had a bottle of whiskey with friends.
I’m not sure that we’ve got it right but I’m too scared to say.
I don’t feel so good.
The floorboards are wasting away and all I see is you looking over, above and beyond.

You’re everything.
This 27-page document (long) says everything we know we don’t know.

Father Frank Morales.
The Winchester House.
Men at 10,000 windows.

Creeping past the Pastor as quiet as a mouse.
Something isn’t right.
I see the bones of you.

Back in Venice Beach, in the alley, the screams coming out of nowhere.
Rising out of your lungs like a headful of steam, mixing with the air of nowhere.
Operation Chaos.
The Bowery Hotel.
I bought a gun from somewhere.
I said “I want my fucking art back for myself!”
Falling into nowhere.

8.

9.

10.

Gone.
