anne mccue – driving down alvarado lyrics
it’s a different city when it rains
it trickles down from the filthy sky
she can see the panic in the drivers’ eyes
‘let me out of here’
the elevator feels like a secret room
that everybody knows
she turns the key and waits and thinks
‘get me out of here’
take me down
down to the place where the monster’s play
i give in
everything, everything….all the way
she says ‘sometimes tequila tastes like gasoline’
and the words catch in her mouth
then he takes a cube of ice
and begins to slide
her spine feels like a snake that’s been pacified
she’s melting in his hands as he starts to breathe
and it fills her up like a memory
take me down…
he says ‘women always talk about love too soon’
lights up a smoke and he leaves the room
she’s feeling for her lipstick in her make-up case
and she’s walking down the stairs trying to remember his face
take me down…
she’s driving down alvarado again
going down, down, down, down, down, down, down…
