San Francisco, Morgantown
This is the story of my breakdown
How my whole mind went up like smoke
I hit the bottom and I awoke
Carolina, cocaine, St. Pete
I lost my daddy to the southern heat
Rehab is bad, he said, What do you mean
Son, you won't believe the things I've seen
So I took off, one June day
To meet my love in a Spanish bay
She was 14, I was inches away
I turned to leave and heard her say
She said, Córdoba? Córdoba? Córdoba
Was that your name?
I'm in a hospital at 17
Suffering from something they say no one's seen
Pain in every part of me
I can't feel my feet, and I hardly breathe
Doc says, Had a girl like you. Last week she died
Guess we never know what's going on inside
Truth is, you look fine on the MRI
But you're telling me you feel like you want to die
6 weeks of school, 20 pounds
11 days of hospitals gowns
I'm in a government registry, they call me
Idiopathic encephalopathy
But call me Córdoba, Córdoba
Because Córdoba is my name
