[00:47.07]The town where she was born,
[00:48.37]like town where I was born was built by white settlers seeking gold and other treasures.
[00:55.05]Like me she feels uncomfortable in the clothing of her ancestors.
[01:02.52]"It's not easy" she would say,
[01:03.91]dipping her fingers into the ashtray,
[01:06.07]"It's not easy to erase your blood."
[01:09.16]Rock me now (come on, sing with me)
[01:16.07]in the arms of cobwebs
[01:24.08]Roll me out
[01:31.99]in the arms of cobwebs
[01:41.09]That night she found a man to treasure and together they'd planted flowers of warning, fearing frost.

[02:52.72]When she was 7 years old she saw a man get shot but,
[02:56.53]no one came along for a long time because it happened in a remote parking lot in Las Vegas
[03:01.37]And she was waiting for her mom to come back from working the blackjack table at the Circus Circus casino.
[03:08.40]And that night her mom said that the two of them and the now dead guy were the only 3 people who ever really lived in Las Vegas.
[03:16.17]Everybody else just arrived, ate their complimentary shrimp cocktail, and left.
[03:23.33]Rock me now in the arms of cobwebs  (It's a one room city, yeah)
[03:38.53]Roll me out in the arms of cobwebs  (So can you roll with me?)
[03:54.73]His value declined when he offered his name.
[04:01.75]It's a one room city the wall to wall to wall to wall goes to street to street to street
[04:11.31]end.
