Instant Disassembly

Mamasita, catch me now as I sink Into darkness I thought to be extinct Chilled my eyeballs as the curtains were torn And shed a light so bright Shining like the day I was born Mamasita, take from me what I stole Oh, I get a look from you that strips me To a blank page in my soul Like the left open window ignored It cuts to my core when I see you cry Mamasita, I’ve prepared my defense Flawed as ever in the drunkest tense Kept repeating, kept repeating myself In my native tongue the parlance of problem itself Mamasita, hold me now as I ache She’s got a real firm grip and she’s rockin’ Trying to shake me awake Turn on the white noise murmur of the AM band And the last classic rock band’s last solid record creeps in A call out of the blue from an old, old friend Instant, instant disassembly Mamasita, into pieces I fall Oh, you did your heart no favors Darling, when you taught me to crawl Don’t beseech me for the answers you seek Oh, I kept explaining that I was too tired To continue to speak Mamasita, hear me now I insist Oh, you’ve got to trust me when I say Long for something better than this Kept repeating, kept repeating myself There’s nothing left to dismantle The house it just collapsed on itself Instant, instant disassembly Mamasita, tie me loose as I flee Oh, it seems that you’ve got a spotlight Cast on the dark side of me I feel a pain so acute like I’m being impaled And I can’t breathe, can’t breathe, it’s hard to inhale And it’s worth repeating I can’t breathe, I can’t breathe It’s hard to inhale yeah I can’t breathe, I can’t breathe It’s hard to inhale yeah I can’t breathe, I can’t breathe It’s hard to inhale yeah When you’re near I can’t breathe, I can’t breathe It’s hard to inhale yeah I can’t breathe, I can’t breathe It’s hard to inhale yeah I can’t breathe, I can’t breathe It’s hard to inhale yeah I can’t breathe, I can’t breathe It’s hard to inhale yeah I can’t breathe, I can’t breathe
