l.a salami - come back for the rest of me lyrics

[verse 1]
i woke up starving, i went to sleep mad
’cause i met cassandra, and i gave her all i had
i reached out to her
but she tore away my hands
my burdens beckon me into abysmal scenes
but cassandra’s the good guy as far as she can see
but you can’t smell the body parts
on a movie screen
and cassandra won’t come back for the rest of me

[verse 2]
she waits outside my window to negotiate with my time
she lays there patiently in the warm summer nights
but she keeps mistaking me
for someone who has lost his mind
the deserted city streets have wrapped me in their rains
i’m lost in mayfair, and i can’t afford the train
the money stole my soul
and then left me be
and mayfair won’t come back for the rest of me
[verse 3]
so when your candid masters have dwindled to a few
and you’ve forgotten how to sing, and how to speak to your friends too
just lo and behold
your masters have got a hold on you
and through my apartment door where the lame sun resides
where personal post+modern warfare lays upon ruined tides
you might just my eyes
or my soul, regretfully
because my masters won’t come back for the rest of me

[verse 4]
i’m burning in water, drowning in flame
on the dull days the doldrums distort a poet’s pain
i fellowed sleep
who kissed me in the brain
i hope to black out if i hold my breath for long
all the angels are ebbing out of me and the beast is gone
the madmen is all that’s left
and whiskey makes him strong
but this just might be the bond to free my insanity
because the artist won’t come back for the rest of me
oh no, the artist won’t come back for the rest of me
