Lyrics

Now you see it now you don't
Things make sense, and then they won't
I can barely see across the bay

She's so distant and obscure
I can't escape from her
Until I'm far enough away

And alcatraz comes in and out of sight
And alcatraz is flashing in the night
And I think of the one, a distant blur
A piece of me still lodged in her
Held prisoner - she's my alcatraz

Things I think I almost know
Discontinued long ago
Once occurred inside her walls

And I can't helping thinking of
Harsh rituals of love
That no one quite recalls

But alcatraz doesn't really care
And alcatraz almost isn't there
But I think of the one, so dear to me
Whose face I still can almost see
Distantly --she's my alcatraz

So un-together
Under the weather
I can't make it out

And alcatraz is a distant blur
So alcatraz looks a lot like her
And I almost see her taking shape
And part of me still can't escape
Nobody has - she's my alcatraz
