There’s a landscape under that scum of cloud
Trailing back
To where I was and where the man you were
May no longer be
All the drugs I’ve snuffled ain’t done shit or shinola
In comparison to what I’ve just seen
Counting lucky days that number in the hundreds
Back to when the time was short and
The end was apparently so nigh
Seems you’re hardier than the hardy home
Growing on your lung
Obstinately clinging and changing
It’s pushing on your heart now
As hard as you’re pushing on ours
It’s pushing on all our hearts now
Think this spring is almost unwound

If this is happening then you’re gone
Pre-emptive strike on the next mark
Carved in to the dank stone
Of this cell block
This breathing sentence
Got so much more value for money
Than perhaps we deserved
When the clock is ticking like this
You beg gods non existent
To crack every gear in the mechanism
That pushes those hands
To stop those seconds from sweeping
I’m never going to be that citizen
Of Gotham again
I remember as much bad as good
I know watching you crumble
Is slow release sadness
I know exactly how it ends
Watching you crumble
Is slow release sadness
I know exactly how it ends

This is as much a battle as the eastern front
Swallowed up like so many soldiers in a Russian winter
Bogged deep in morphine soaked stasis
The hallucinations a laughing discomfort
Backlit profile lies in state
Though what that state may be
I'll never know
As your breath hitches
Catches
Expires
As my breath holds
Hope long
Expired
That floor so cold as I stare through
Quiet tears at the husk
That held you 72 years
That fucking scream, that fucking scream, that fucking scream
Haunts me
Etched deep
What I would give to erase it
How I'd curse not having that
Jagged memory
