they say you gone I say "YOU FREE"
they say you dead I say "YOU FREE"
they say they miss you, they want you back
"I say "YOU FREE" they say you died
an untimely death I say "YOU FREE"
they cry coz you gone I shed tears
coz I'm still here watching candles burn
and go out watching floating balloons
watching
dirty teddy bears propped up against
fences standing outside watching
flowers die and people crying all the time
watching
crosses stuck in the mud reading RIP
written on a shirt reading name scrawled
on the walls listening to anger scream
listening to brothers squeeze off watching
the life of the living paying the cost of being
"I SAY YOU FREE"
