deadman
o' deadman,
you reach out and graze
the grains, the black fruit
na na na dangling,
you're tired of floating through the walls
as a sickly breath,
blurred-out silhouette,
a dream
not dreamt,
o' deadman,
how are you feeling now?
you're everywhere
and nowhere at all
/
/
silence is screaming,
your voice
freezes
over,
the moon
hides from you,
the wolves howl at you,
o' deadman,
looks like you're never coming home
