lyrics

A Wound That Never Heals

It hurts me
when a you shaped hole
appears in the cosmos,
where there is
an absence of colour,
where the sound
scrapes along,
where the light
is masked by
dense grey mist.

That’s where
I miss you
the most.

When it rains
a greasy rain,
when the cracked bell
clangs,
when the planets
are misaligned.

That’s where
I miss you
the most.

When my shadow
disappears
behind my back,
when the alcohol
turns the semblance
of normality
to tears,

when I reach for the phone
to tell you the news
and my hand is stilled
by the reality
of the reaper.

That’s where
I miss you
the most
dear friend.
That’s where
I miss you
the most.
