The car beside me is from Quebec And I hear children whispering in French I'm accidentally realizing my own existence Trapped inside this steel contraption Like if I were to take off my clothes I would simply be naked Or if I were to cut my hair I would just be carrying around a few less secrets Who likes shoulder length secrets anyway So maybe I'll sharpen this car key on the parking lot pavement And give myself a good old fashioned trim
How is it that all of the songs reeling through my speakers Call but one thought to mind A boy in forest green, and then my own reflection I watch myself float past in a mirror made of river water
