parking lots - terrordactyls lyrics

i saw a heart shaped oil stain last nightwhile walking
home on pike and broadway
like a loving queen perched
on her asphalt throne.
she ruled the corner firmly
like a mother to her child,
like a lover to a daydream
or as magic tricks will rule a smile.
she hid beneath a taxi as her
neighbors screamed and fought.
the sh-ll station was her kingdom.
her castle was the parking lot.
she wondered if one day

she’d find a king to keep the drunks at bay,
a gentle oil puddle
that would never wash away.
she was born from an old engine
that had never really been maintained,
a broken home beneath a hood
that leaked each time it rained.
she hadn’t met her parents,
but she heard that they resided
an a sidewalk by a texaco
on eastern staten island.
they never lived to learn
that their daughter had become royalty.
a hard working employee
scrubbed their bodies to the street.
