He turned to me, said, "Do you remember anything that would make him want to hurt himself in such a way?"
I closed my eyes.
I couldn’t believe he had no memory...
We are… we are… we are…
floating outside our bodies in the rain while the car is driving down
this road. We’re going down, down, down this road again.
Down, down, down this road again.
He turned to me, said, "Do you remember anything that would make him want to hurt himself in such a way?"
I closed my eyes.
I couldn’t believe he had no memory...
We are… we are… we are…
(I lay by his bed and held his hand. His eyes fluttered open, then closed again. The poison ran through his yellowed skin. I hung my head as he started to shake…)
floating outside our bodies in the rain while the car is driving down
this road. We’re going down, down, down this road again.
Down, down, down this road again.
And the rain, coming down, down, down.
And the rain, coming down, down, down.
And the rain, pouring down, down, down.
