In a modern palace on a cliff overlooking the sea
Glass walls on every side
I lay on the bed of a scissorlift
I am here to paint the ceiling
To bring life to your dwelling
To fill it with every human feeling you missed
As you amassed the capital to have it built
At times I doubt my own expertise
But I look at the sea and it’s bigger than you or me
It’s bigger than the money
And whatever else you may ask
To fill that gaping hole inside your heart
—the hole in your life
I’ve been working alone for a month but you’re coming back any day now
I’ve gotten too used to this luxury
And I’ve given more of myself than you deserve
My whole heart and its breaking in abstract passion
But I’ve taken something as well.
The doorbell rings, it’s your assistant wearing a tense smile
She’s come to check up on me
She looks up, snaps a picture and sends it to you
Next thing I know I’ve been paid, I’m in a car heading inland
And tonight at one am in the bustling bar back in my neighborhood
I will hear a scripted pickup line
And exchange what I have stolen for ten times what you paid me
And go and sleep in my dusty cot for the first time in weeks
And dream that the sea swallows everything I gave you.
All of my precious heart
You will never know the value
And I see you as worthless
You can’t buy a soul within you
