"Southwest Suburbs" lyrics

"Southwest Suburbs"

Wind blew in from Scottsdale Mountain
Where a piece of me is still alive in the suburbs
Cowboy up and sell your horses
Time to fill poisoned pen
Drain the well again
Make it count, it's the last of the fairy dust
After this nothing remains in the dark

I thought about the question posed to me
Looked in the mirror, I don't like what I see
How can I love you?
I can't forgive myself

Wind blew in from Scottsdale Mountain
Stirring up the ugliness of my shallow self
Master Yi tried to teach me years ago
Black belt, knuckles gushing blood
Mau-maus to the temple
Feeling like a worm starting up at the sky
Longing for the warm embrace of the light

It's just another line of prose for me
No lied impulsion while I'm sick with secrets
How can I love you?
I can't forgive myself
I can't forgive myself
