lyrics

He had come, expatriated
Businessman or film director
Time won't tell the differences

It's not just the steamboat between them

One the dream of art and address
The other of the dream of the first
Up against the thick vine and hiss

The weight something more than a rusted hull
pulled up the mountain to Caruso

And so
the will of man is enough but it won't be
The dark is always the hero of its story

The rope is not strong enough to lift it up
The apparatus strains against the overdraw
Constructed not for what it is but what it's not

The scene is a lie with an underscore
to make the most of a failure

Untethered and dragged across the jungle floor
Unmoored and set loose into the river's roar

I'm lost
Fireworks in the Plaza d'Armas
Smell and noise rising up from the Ataya
I'm lost
The city lets in the shadows to smother me
The dark is always the hero of its story
