they buried
me here
last Sunday night
cried over
my body
then shut the coffin tight
I see black
see the back
of my eyelids
this is not
quite what I
expected
I lie awake
I lie awake
He comes and
brings me flowers
his voice bleeds through the earth
if I had tears
I'd cry them
to drown this sick rebirth
I see black
see the back
of my eyes
its been a year
of this austere
existence
I lie awake
I lie awake
