bel-air

Lyrics

a palm tree nodded at me last night, he said, "hey, you look so pale.", i don't know if it was the air or the breeze in my hair, i had a feeling i had failed, so down to the beach just out of reach, the moon was being trailed, a girl and a sailor and a hot dog trailer, that's their holy grail, the sand whispered heat and burned the feet, of gulls landing on the shore, in the motel pool the waitress cools, she doesn't ask for more, she makes a wish she takes a risk, she opens up her door, through human eyes she's a dolphin in disguise, it's the last night of the war, somewhere far away there's another day, and someone's getting out of bed, she puts on her face in the morning space, she doesn't know she's dead, her ruby lips can't excite me anymore, and pain sprawls on the chair, it's always there, and he descends the stairs, he doesn't see, the sunburnt landlord glares, for all the people, he can never be
