| Helen, all night,
|
| I can’t sleep through the pain.
|
| But when I can I’m dreaming, of pacing around for days.
|
| Strip the crutches, am I floating?
|
| Are we adrift upon the sea?
|
| Without wind or direction, the currents will carry me.
|
| Capsized this body, now it’s breaking up.
|
| Here’s how I go, just don’t do much.
|
| Let me die not a burden.
|
| Let the birds sing my name.
|
| From this vessel on the hill.
|
| No more pills and no more pain.
|
| I’m in the lights you see, that will flicker at night.
|
| The steps you heard in the hallway were mine
|
| what I wanted to say, «it'll be alright.» |
| «I'm at your side.»
|
| Capsized this body, now it’s breaking up.
|
| Here’s how I go, just don’t do much.
|
| Give all my things to the ones I love.
|
| Meet me here in the hole we dug.
|
| Capsized this body, now it’s breaking up. |
