sal sleeps by the window, his hand in his mouth
never mind that you can't trust a word that comes out
he's sweet, but has trouble with faces
he's got bruises in covered up places
he's trying to sell me a flying machine
his english is broken but i know what he means
he's expressive, he talks with his hands
his machine flies all right, but he isn't quite sure how it lands
anais keeps a razor hidden inside her sock
she's got plenty of options now, so she's taking stock
she set out from lyons last december
she had a plan at the time but now she can't remember
she pulled her blade on me outside termini
she said back the fuck off or else i'll make you see
she doesn't need anybody to save her
she slashed at my wrists like she was doing a friend a favor
and i like to just listen to alison talk
she points out all the sights when we go for our walks
she took a class on ancient rome
but she had to drop out when things went bad at home
we're not sleeping together but we're sharing a bed
this saves money on board room, twenty euro a head
if you insist on sleeping alone
and it works out just fine, cause i'm scared to be on my own
and the word on the street is that i killed a man
served in iraq, or maybe afghanistan
some days they think i'm an actor
traveling incognito to avoid my detractors
other days, i'm a burnout just like all the rest
just ephemeral stains on these streets we infest
till we give up and move on at last
unknown like the city, unknown like the depths of the past
