Burn brightly, my fair city. |
This is my last song to you. |
I’ve been spending my nights stumbling drunk and arguing with claims I can’t |
refute. |
I circumvented this entire town, east to west and back again. |
I walked a tightrope on the power lines across the river and that’s how I |
learned to swim. |
You’ll never escape it — it will follow you. |
I shifted in my seat at the funeral and searched for a memory of you, |
but all my efforts were fucking useless so I strained for a mental substitute. |
But I can’t escape you; |
you are part of me just like the body that’s glued to |
my feet. |
I can’t escape you; |
you are part of me just like the tongue that’s trapped |
behind my teeth. |
I can’t escape you; |
you are part of me just like the mouth that allows me to |
speak. |
You’ll never escape it — it will follow you. |
