lyrics

I soothe myself
repeating
“they don’t have
power over me”

I soothe myself
constantly
“I don’t need
their money”

I subject myself
at my own whim.
I serve them
at my own whim.

Across the alley
the light shines
always at strange
unpredictable times.

I'm weeping, I'm sobbing
I'm not thinking
I'm weeping, I’m sobbing
I'm manipulated
I'm weeping, I'm sobbing
I'm truly feeling
I am only feeling.
I am only feeling.

I soothe myself
repeatedly
only I have
power over me.

It's not true that we
all want the same thing.
I see the chandelier
shimmer across the street.

I never see people
through the window.
Possessions
are all I know.

I can live without
any demands.
I try to look at it
from a distant land.

I'm weeping, I'm sobbing
I'm not thinking
I'm weeping, I’m sobbing
I'm manipulated
I'm weeping, I'm sobbing
I'm truly feeling.
I am only feeling.
I am only feeling.

You lock eyes
across the alleyway.
You lock eyes
through the window.
You fall in love
with someone you don’t know
just moving in
at first glance.

You fall in love
naturally.
You fall in love
mutually.
You fall in love
easily.
You fall in love
repeatedly.

So it comforts you
to be certain
that everything’s earned
it all fits in.

But it comforts me
to be so sure
that no one gets
what they deserve.

I still soothe myself
repeating
“they don’t have any
power over me”

Do you soothe yourself?
Noticing
virtues and blessings
blossoming?

It feels good
subdue yourself,
remove yourself,
remove myself.

They make requests,
I acquiesce.
Don’t acquiesce,
they make requests.

I soothe myself
repeating,
“Only I have
power over me”

I still soothe myself
constantly
I don’t need
their money.

Conductors Chicago, Illinois

"Mona tried to tell me
To stay away from the train line
She said that all the railroad men
Just drink up your blood like wine
An’ I said, 'Oh, I didn’t know that
But then again, there’s only one I’ve met
An’ he just smoked my eyelids
An’ punched my cigarette' "
